The Dark Days (Gelsheimer)

Nineteen-year-old Claudia Sheeplord is aboard an airplane flying to Denver when she discovers that all attempts to destroy the Death Asteroid before it hits Earth have failed. While still in the air, one of the asteroid masses hits Earth.

After the Death Asteroid strikes Earth, Claudia is stranded on a rooftop near Denver International Airport surrounded by the cold waters of the "new" Atlantic Ocean. She and four other misfits have managed to escape the wrath of destruction and must now put the pieces back together. Are there any other survivors?

After Claudia and Ben stumble upon Dorian's secret, they are taken prisoner. Food and supplies are running low, and Dorian's ultimate goal is survival of the race - and the fittest.
