Description

Mankind is no longer at the top of the food chain.

The Sixth Extinction is an apocalyptic tale about a pandemic that sweeps the globe, decimating the human race, leaving humanity struggling to survive. Within three weeks, everything has changed. Social structure has collapsed as the government locks itself away with a select portion of its vast army in deep bunkers, leaving the civilians to their own fate and the infected that stalk the streets.

The fourteen riding inside a shipping container, on the back of a truck, unwittingly find themselves trapped inside a military run town, just outside New York City. At first, everything seemed better – they were somewhere secure, with food and a place to sleep, protected by their country’s army. Then things take a deadly turn as they witness people who are beaten and chained like animals. The group of military personnel have gone AWOL and have decided to create their own version of the future. They have to find a way out. But how, they are surrounded, and they have no weapons?

Doctor Nathan Bachman was moved from one secret military bunker to another as the pod at Groom Lake was believed too dangerous, and a Presidential mandate determined its destruction along with all the others. However, the world was led to believe all the pods have been destroyed, until Bachman learns there’s one still alive in the facility hidden below his very feet, and unbelievably it’s reproducing!
