Salazar is the first book in this exciting post-apocalyptic, dystopian fantasy series.
Salazar, a descendent of Serena McKay, seems to be the only one who understands that his city, August City, faces apocalyptic annihilation while its wealthiest citizens are spirited away and to safety by spaceships.
Is there any hope?
• The wealthiest residents have fled.
• An unprecedented and unprovoked air raid shatters August City.
• A biological toxin is released on Earth.
Is there any safe place to hide?
Fortunately, Salazar remembers the stories his grandmother told about a city beneath August City, possibly a safe place to weather an unparalleled attack. But, as he leads his mother to this proposed shelter, they are attacked by crazed residents who have inhaled toxic fumes that alter their personalities and turn common men into killers.

Can Salazar and his mother find safety before these madmen kill them both?

Is there a future worth fighting for?
