Fantastic story, a real page-turner. Impossible to put down Stephen King

Forget a good nights sleep. Aurora is epic Linwood Barclay

When the lights go out no one is safe
When a solar storm hits the earth, electrical power is knocked out across the planet, and the blackout could last for years. Soon food becomes scarce, and the rule of law begins to collapse. In their small community, Aubrey and her teenage stepson now face the biggest challenge of their lives.

Across the country, Aubreys estranged brother Thom, a self-made billionaire, retreats to a desert bunker where he can ride out the crisis in perfect luxury. But the complicated history between the siblings is far from over.

As Aubrey struggles to live, what feels like the end of the world is just the beginning of a long-overdue reckoning , and not everyone can survive

Reviews

Fantastic story, a real page-turner. Impossible to put down Stephen King

'Forget a good nights sleep. Aurora is epic, but personal and poignant, horrifying and darkly funny, and flat-out suspenseful Linwood Barclay

With Aurora, David Koepp has firmly staked his ground as one of the best thriller writers working today Blake Crouch

Aurora contains two great narratives on a collision course. When, where and how they collide will you keep you turning pages right up to The End Brian De Palma

David Koepp does it again! Mixing humour, terror, and an all-too-believable doomsday scenario, Aurora is at the top of my list this year Christina Dalcher

Theres a reason David Koepp is the most successful screenwriter of all time. Its because hes one of the greatest storytellers of all time. Aurora is up there with his best: scary, funny, and thought provoking. Buy it immediately Scott Frank, writer and director of The Queens Gambit

Everything a great novel, and great thriller, should be . . . Frightening, surprising, wildly entertaining, but also full of heart Mike Lupica, co-author of The Horsewoman with James Patterson, and Robert B. Parkers Revenge Tour

Terrifyingly plausible, this apocalyptic tale focusseson one family and their trials and triumphs in the face of horrifying odds. Moving, thrilling, and thoughtful, it's a high-velocity thriller with heart and soul. Tim Lebbon, author of The Last Storm

This techno-thriller is a real page-turner: diving into the devastating consequences of an all-too-plausible end of life as we know it event Koepp keeps the reader in constant suspense while making the fall-out of these epic events both relatable and poignant you won't be able to put it down! Ally Wilkes, author of All the White Spaces
