About this series
In Topher's Ton, the world as we know it ends in a cataclysmic frenzy of destruction—bombs raining from the skies, tsunamis swallowing coastlines, and meteors pelting the earth. Amidst this chaos, Topher Bill emerges, scarred by his past encounter with a serial killer but determined to forge a new path.
In the heart of Virginia, he establishes Topherton, a beacon of hope amidst the desolation—an oasis of enlightenment in a world plunged into darkness. Yet, just as hope begins to flicker, a deadly disease sweeps through his people, forcing Topher and his fellow survivors to flee across the Commonwealth in search of sanctuary.
Their journey is fraught with peril, with threats lurking at every turn. Rasheed, a demented boy-god with a tank; Nurse Smith, the twisted leader of a group of malevolent psychologists; and Liam Chris, a vengeful despot—all stand in their way, threatening to crush their hopes of finding a new home.
In Topher's Ton, survival isn't just about outlasting the apocalypse, it's about navigating treacherous landscapes, battling sinister foes, and confronting the darkest corners of the human soul. Join Topher and his companions on an epic quest for redemption, as they fight to carve out a future in a world teetering on the brink of oblivion.

Willkommen bei Raleigh's VORBEITUNGSSCHULE, der führenden Jugendstrafanstalt für die straffälligen Kinder der unanständig Reichen. Nachdem ein Streich furchtbar schiefgeht, werden drei Freunde, Topher Bill, Michael Zorn und Kenneth "Gertrude" Hughes, auf Raleigh's Prep geschickt, eine scheinbar normale Reformschule, die auf einem abgelegenen Berg so weit wie möglich von anderen Menschen entfernt liegt. Dort passen sie ihr neues Leben an, besuchen Kurse und müssen sich mit den unvermeidlichen Tyrannen der Anstalt, Phyro Brimstone und seinem Lakaien Aaron Burr, auseinandersetzen. Doch eines Morgens, kurz nach ihrer Ankunft, finden sie auf dem Feld ihrer neuen Schule eine verstümmelte Leiche. Da sie die neugierigen Jungs sind, die sie sind, beschließen sie, Nachforschungen anzustellen, und enthüllen dabei versehentlich den Schrecken, der in den Wäldern rund um den Campus lauert.

Ah, Fredericksburg, Virginia. A quaint historical town known for its Civil War battlefields, cozy coffee klatches, antique stores, and zombies. Years after escaping the horror of Raleigh's Prep, Topher, Zorn, and Gertrude travel from town to town working as self-proclaimed Transcendental Trackers, ridding the world of ghosts, ghouls, and other supernatural filth (no lost puppies or kittens, plz). Arriving in Fredericksburg, Virginia just in time to stop a Class IV CZA, our heroes quickly find themselves embroiled in various other misadventures, including freeing an elementary school from the grip of a power-mad secretary, stopping a squid monster lurking in the ancient tunnels beneath the city, and coming face to face with their greatest nemesis yet: The Connoisseur. Who would have thought such a pretty little town could be so lethal?
