About this ebook

 Earth is dying and humanity's only hope of survival will be somewhere among the stars.

Ambitious MBA graduate Reggie Lee thought defense contractor Frontierza was a perfect fit for his first job. He couldn't have been more wrong.

Frontierza's work on advanced hibernation technology for sleeper colony ships isn't sexy, but what matters to Reggie is that he will have an extremely visible role leading the first team to test the technology in a month-long cryogenic sleep. The proposition is simple. Succeed and humanity has a real chance of finding a new home before Earth's ecosystem completely collapses. Fail and … you don't wake up. For someone who lives on the edge, the upside outweighs the risk.

But the world Reggie wakes to is nothing like he expected.

Pick up your copy of this suspenseful post-apocalyptic tale and see what lies Beneath Burning Sands.

Ratings and reviews

I loved this book. Couldn't put it down until I finished it. What really captivated me was the fact I was getting both sides of story The side of the people, who had been asleep for 50 years unknowingly. And the side of the people who were forced to live in a world of desperate times, A world unlike any the sleepers had ever known. This is a very well written story that had me picking and choosing who I was rooting for, people from both sides had me cheering them on .GREAT READ!! Thank you 💕💕.

Read up to chapter nine and couldn't take any more. The characters are so unbelievable. None of them would have been thought to be suitable in a playgroup together, let alone a serious situation. They act like squabbling little kids.

Post-apocalyptic books aren't generally my favorite, but I've loved everything else P R Adams and thought I'd give it a try. I don't think he can write a bad book, and like his other works, this one didn't disappoint at all. Fast paced, great characters, great dialog, and believable world building. Not giving away anything, since it's covered in the description, the main protagonist is just a average guy trying to get by. He doesn't appear to be equipped for the end of the world situation he finds himself in. A constant theme in all of Adam's book is growth and self-knowledge - coming into one's skills and abilities. We see that in Reggie as he copes with rebellious colleagues, murderous mutants, and a harsh environment. I really liked Reggie! Also, as in his other books, the antagonists are believable and I was sympathetic to their situation. Like our human survivors, they, too, are trying to survive in a exceedingly harsh world.
