The line between order and chaos is as thin as a stream of electrons flowing in a copper wire. That's a lesson Robert Hendricks will learn the hard way in When the Levee Breaks, the second installment of The Outage Series. In the year 2179, on an alien ship nearing earth at high speed, Hendricks – the lone human on board – is telling the story of what happened to him more than 150 years before when he left his home planet. In 2026, an electromagnetic pulse has devastated the North American power grid. After 96 hours in the dark and with his supplies running low, Hendricks must develop his survival instincts on–the–fly as he struggles to cope with life unplugged. His travels eventually lead him to the local hospital where he decides to drop his solitary ways and pitch in with relief efforts. But within days a mysterious arrival will send Hendricks down a new path, one that will put him on a collision course with his destiny, 150 years in the future. How does a reclusive cab driver from Atlantic Canada end up as humanity's first interstellar explorer? Find out When the Levee Breaks.
