Top 15 Bestseller in Sci-Fi Action & Adventure on Ingram It is 2070, and the American dream has been replaced by containment zones, surveillance drones, and endless wildfire. Inside the Gypsum detention center, Alton Lucas lives a lie, concealing his mixed heritage from the white supremacists he is imprisoned with. His cover is blown not by the inmates, but by the state. Desperate to stop a new wave of insurrection, the government weaponizes Alton against the insurgency's leader: Alex Weber, now known as Hagen. Years ago, Alton, Alex, and Kiara were inseparable, bonded by a shared obsession with space travel. Now, they are on opposite sides of a civil war. To stop Alex, Alton must become something else entirely. Augmented with lethal technology and stripped of his agency, he is sent into the mountains to hunt the only family he has left. But as Alton peels back the layers of Alex's plan, he discovers that the target isn't the White House or the capital-it's the upcoming Mars Colony Launch. Afterburn is a visceral journey into a future where identity is a weapon and nostalgia is a trap. From the squalor of prison camps to the promise of the Red Planet, Alton Lucas must decide if he is willing to let the world burn to save his friends-or if he has the strength to let them go. Afterburn is a speculative fiction thriller in the vein of American War by Omar El Akkad or Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel. The novel teems with cinematic visuals, breathless action, provocative themes, and poignant character moments.
