FROM MILLION-COPY BESTSELLER JASPER T. SCOTT
The sun is dimming, the world is ending,
and the long journey south is only the beginning.
In the middle of summer, snow falls over Montana. Daylight dims to a ghostly twilight. And at night, glowing alien spores drift from the sky bringing a sickness that can twist the people you love into something unrecognizable. The air grows colder and the infected more dangerous with every passing day.
Nate Corwin, a science teacher, and his wife Paula, a nurse, know that their suburban home won’t hold for long. With their two children, Riley and Jonah, and their loyal golden retriever, Max, they set out for Paula’s family farm in Florida—one place they pray might still be safe—and warm.
But the road south is a gauntlet of horrors: parasite-driven killers, blizzards, collapsing refugee camps, and monsters that hunt in the dark. The only defense—UV light—is feeble at best, and the infected are starting to adapt.
As the alien bloom spreads and the world tilts toward madness, the Corwins will learn that survival isn’t just about keeping the monsters out, it’s about deciding how far you’re willing to go to protect the people you love.
The Darkening is a relentless, heart-pounding journey through a world where the sun is growing dark, the rules are gone, and every step could be your last.
