Six people. Six ways to resist. One country in crisis deciding what comes next.
They do not know each other. They have never met. But in present-day America, as the institutions they rely upon fracture around them, each has to decide who they want to be and what they are willing to fight for.
An Idealist who still believes in the system. An Agitator who never did. A Pragmatist calculating the cost of every move. An Organizer empowering the people who need it the most. A Leader hiding in plain sight, controlling the resistance from the inside. And an Assassin who has already decided that some things cannot be fixed from within the system.
Each tells their story in the days building up to America's 250th birthday celebration in Washington DC and the massive protests that will define the next chapter of American history. None of them knows the others exist. All of them are influencing the cataclysmic change rocking the country.
American Carnage: Forging a New Republic is a near-future political thriller told from six perspectives, set inside the fractures of the America its readers are already living. It is not a novel about how a society collapses. It is a novel about how ordinary people begin rebuilding something better when it does.
Book 1 of The American Carnage Saga.
For readers of George Packer, Octavia Butler, and Margaret Atwood who are looking for a story set in the world in which they are living.
