Purchase options and add-ons
Keith Korman envisions a dark future for America in this chilling apocalyptic thriller.
What is happening to the country-and the planet?
A government bio-lab experiment goes hideously wrong, infecting people with scientifically-programmed madness . . .
Random kidnappings of women and girls proliferate throughout the land . . .
Some people suddenly succumb to horrifically-virulent viruses while others become able to read minds . . .
Mysteriously summoned to confront these frightening questions, three people are thrown together on a bizarre cross-country quest: Cheryl Gibson, an LA cop; Billy Howahkan, a Lakota Sioux with seeming supernatural gifts; and Bhakti Singh, a distinguished space scientist. This unlikely group must track down a pair of children with extraordinary powers, children who will determine humanity's fate-obliteration or salvation.
As the three set out across America, a blood-dimmed tide is unleashed. Anarchy, terror, and death stalk the land in Keith Korman's End Time.

Editorial Reviews
Review
“[A] violent, whimsical, and expansive tale of disparate people coming together to save the world . . . the complicated puzzle of a plot is pleasantly twisty, and the ending feels satisfyingly correct.” ―Publishers Weekly
“A stunning apocalyptic thriller in the tradition of The Stand.” ―Steve Alten, New York Times bestselling author of The Omega Project, on End Time

- Reviewed in the United States on November 24, 2015This book was chock full of interesting characters and details. Not just informative on scientific matters, it was a fun and suspenseful read.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 8, 2016The reviews of this book are good. I have no clue why. I am normally a poor critic as I look for redeeming qualitys in everything. It's as if the author took every supernatural concept that ever entered his mind and put them in one book. I read over 100 books a year. I hated this book.

- Reviewed in the United States on February 2, 2016In a modern day thriller, the world’s population is challenged by dangerous minds intent on creating an advanced species employing space particles, extraordinarily rare human DNA and capabilities, and the combined technological and biological knowledge of scientists and others (including an incredibly old and dangerous being who lives among us, although he is not one of us). The plan and the contributed powers of that evil being among us (a being so powerful he is able to read and control all human minds, exploiting mass communications, among other things, for evil purposes) render mankind effectively immobile, sick and dying in a matter of weeks as part of a plot to change the inhabitants of the world to a better species – “The not-so-meek who shall inherit the Earth. Survival of the fittest on a molecular level.” The world is not what it was (far from it), and it plainly is not what we think it is. A race against time, and travelling through time and space, reveal the tale of a society nearly destroyed by evil from eons past, but saved through the existence of love from beyond and in the present. Carefully travel this adventure because a cataclysm awaits you. All mankind lives in a very fragile state – for so many reasons – including the tale told here. Congratulations on another successful piece of compelling fiction!
