Hero Virus
GOODREADS: "THE HERO VIRUS" “5 stars for being so different from other apocalypse books."
“What an interesting
story. Reading their blogs and each viewpoint was unique. I felt like I was
with them on their journey.”
Fear spreads like a disease, but what if heroism swept the
population like a contagious virus that eliminated caution, the basic survival switch
in the amygdala of the brain?
The contagion began with the arrival of meteorites that
flashed down around the globe, spreading clouds of dust and a mysterious agent.
Those infected rise up and challenge the law and the system.
They run suicide gauntlets across busy highways, stand high on ledges and tops of
buildings, front enemies they once feared, spark reprisals, conflict and
bloodshed in the streets - and raise the threat of reckless wars between
nations.
The ‘Hero Virus.’
One man – a rarity – is unaffected. He is a frightened
man, an anxiety sufferer and
returned Afghanistan war hero recovering from serious post-traumatic stress disorder.
He decides to flee crazy civilization in an RV motorhome, along with his wife and
children, and journey across the rugged wilderness of Australia to find a safe
haven - a sanctuary, where people shelter in dug out dwellings beneath the
ground. He keeps a secret Treatment Journal and photos of how he is traveling
with his condition.
Can a frightened former hero
save his loved ones in a world where the brave end up dead? And will the world
find an answer to the ‘hero virus’ from space?
