Synopsis
In one moment a global blackout occurs, and six billion humans become unconscious. During a brief yet seemingly eternal three-minute sequence, a series of catastrophic events occurs, and minds collide with truths hidden beyond the physical realm. With the reawakening comes a drastically and horrifically altered world—populations decimated and social order gutted. No one seems to remember the truth that has been revealed or that this discovery could destroy the human race—except Laura. Though even she has no knowledge of why the postblackout births are mutations or what is so wrong with some of the survivors.

Reviews
Apocalyptic novels come in all sizes and shock levels, but Roddy’s debut offers something a little different, combining unsettling horror with a touch of New Age mysticism. The setting is present-day San Francisco, where citizens are reeling from two inexplicable blackouts that, sweeping the globe, have brought civilization to a standstill. For almost everyone, the blackouts were accompanied by a sudden loss of awareness and then a wave of black despair. For Laura Morgan, however, an epiphany of blissful, cosmic consciousness made her experience quite different, and she’s baffled by the outbreaks of chaos and violence. Together with a ragtag group of refugees, she flees to Las Vegas as a decimated U.S. population begins to regroup. None of them is prepared, however, to face a new breed of soulless humans called Shaitan, whose taste for violence threatens to push humanity back to the Stone Age. Roddy’s tale suffers from the usual freshman mistakes but includes enough thrills and original ideas to satisfy most horror fans. --Carl Hays
