When the Sleepers Woke

Allan Dane is waiting in reserve above New York when the enemy’s black fleet fills the sky—and yellow gas begins to swallow the city below.

In a future at war, the defense of New York lasts only minutes before a devastating new weapon turns battle into catastrophe. Pilot Allan Dane sees the fleet vanish and the poison mist roll across the land; when he wakes from suspended sleep, the world he knew is gone. In a silence broken by desperate survivors, he must discover what remains of humanity—and whether its future can still be saved. Who else has awakened, and what has the long sleep left alive?
