FROM MILLION-COPY BESTSELLER JASPER T. SCOTT THEY HAVE ARRIVED. 2150 AD: Chris Randall just lost his job as a bodyguard. That night, after picking up his wife, Bree, from her shift at a local casino, he breaks the bad news. Moments later, thunder cracks the sky, but there’s no lightning. Flaming debris rain across the valley, and a dark mass goes sailing out of the clouds, headed straight for LA. It’s not one of the Union’s starships, because they can’t defy gravity like that. But then what is it? The answer chills both Chris and Bree to their cores: it’s an invasion. They have to pick up their kids and get away from the city. But the Randalls soon discover that nowhere is far enough away to keep them safe.

THE OCCUPATION HAS BEGUN Having wiped out every major city on the planet, the Kyra are herding survivors into safe zones where they have promised to re-establish order and provide the basic necessities. Fences are erected to keep out the failed hybrids, known as “Dregs”. Meanwhile, the successful hybrids are sent away to fight in the Kyra's war. That is Christopher Randall's primary concern when he and his family are taken to the safe zone in New San Bernardino: What if they get conscripted, too? Making matters worse, the zones aren't as safe as the Kyra claim. Dregs prowl the streets at night, and the Chimeras that hunt them aren't much better. The zones are little more than concentration camps with a singular goal: Breed humans to produce a new generation of conscripts. Chris quickly realizes that they'll be better off in the Wastes, but escaping won't be easy. The refugees have tracking implants with remote kill switches, and attempting an escape could be the last thing the Randalls ever do. Yet when Christopher's daughter, Gaby, begins drawing too much attention to herself, he realizes that if they don't escape soon, his family will never be the same.

Earth is overrun.... Chris Randall and his family are on the run with a group of renegade soldiers led by General Gold. Having stolen a Kyron shuttle and escaped from the occupied cities, they are safe - for now. General Gold has a plan to strike back against the Kyra. Meanwhile, one of Earth's old colony ships has returned, and they have revealed the invaders' weakness: the Chrona. But are the Chrona a new enemy or a friend? Chris isn't sure, and he isn't convinced that striking back is a good idea. Yet, one thing he knows without a doubt: The fate of the human race hinges on the answer.
