About this series
"The world is broken. It's broken and it wants to kill us. All of us. I think it might succeed."
At Christmas, the city was attacked by an unknown force. All Faith and her friends know of it is the fallout: a tainted sky that throws down acid rain, and a Sickness that kills and warps everyone it touches.
There is no help coming. There is no food being grown or fresh clothes being made. All they have to live on is what they can scavenge, and those supplies are only getting harder to find.
It's August now. They've lost friends and gained new members since the bomb went off, and it's time to start looking for a way to sustain themselves before there are no more scraps to find.
The only lead they have is a distant radio message. Will it hold the promise of a future? Can they forge a new world in the ashes of the old one?

0
This is a picture of the girl that once was, before the bomb went off and changed everything. After betrayal by her best friend, Faith MacIntyre starts a new blog, trying to turn the page to a brighter future. She makes war with terribly normal foes: an ex-boyfriend who broke her heart; a retail job in Christmas crowds; an intimate mistake with an old friend. She doesn't know that the end of the world is coming. She doesn't know about the fight for sanity and survival that will be thrust upon her. Soon, Faith will be wishing that boyfriends, customers and cash registers are all she has to worry about. Soon, this blog will be all she has left of her current life.
- The Apocalypse Blog Book 1: End of the Old

"The world is broken. It's broken and it wants to kill us. All of us. I think it might succeed." On Christmas Eve, a bomb tears apart the city where Faith MacIntyre lives. At first, it feels like the whole world has ended. After a while, Faith realises that feeling might be right. Help stops coming, communications break down, and Faith's group is increasingly isolated. They push on to get to the hospital, the last hope for their injured, fighting loss and starvation and other, desperate people who have turned to violence in the darkness. Worse, it seems as if nature itself is broken and turned against them. Acid taints the rain, dissolving the city around Faith and her group. They soon realise that the hardest battle to fight is the one for hope. This is the first installment of Faith's journey, with new, extended content! Contains violence, occasional swearing and adult themes.

"The world is broken. It's broken and it wants to kill us. All of us. I think it might succeed." The bomb went off nearly four months ago and things are only getting harder for the survivors. Acid rain falls every day, dissolving anything - and anyone - caught in it. Sickness is just starting to creep across the landscape. The dead are stirring. Other groups of survivors battle for food and supremacy. Faith and her group of Seekers have tried not to fall into the trap of dog-eat-dog. They're trying to hold on to what makes them human, but that might get them killed. How many compromises will they have to make to survive? This is Faith's story, blogged to a laptop in the hopes that someday, someone will know what really happened when the world ended. Contains violence, occasional swearing and adult themes.
