White Pickups

I read a lot. Considering how much I write, that's probably like saying, "I breathe a lot," or "I blink a lot." Reading's a part of the job, so I'm always chewing up books and spitting them out.

   

When you read constantly, you notice the same universal themes popping up time and again. That's normal. But when you get a completely unique take on a familiar theme? That's when things get interesting.

  

At summer’s end, mysterious white pickup trucks take to the roads and compel nearly everyone to “drive off.” Some of those who remain gather in a suburban Atlanta subdivision, and struggle to cope with a world whose infrastructure is rapidly crumbling. One of the few who are mentally and emotionally prepared for the end of the world is Cody Sifko, a youth who quickly becomes the inspiration for the others. When a strange homeless woman names him “Father of Nations,” is she seeing his future or her own delusions? As winter and a hate group try to destroy Laurel Hills, can Cody overcome personal tragedy and seize his destiny? 

Love, hate, survival, and an apocalypse like no other—White Pickups is ready to take you on the ride of your life!
  

White Pickups by Larry Kollar is a familiar theme -- namely, apocalypse -- approached in an unusual way. In somewhat Stephen Kingsian fashion, all vehicles in the world have been replaced with uniform white pickups, which people feel strangely compelled to enter. But once you get behind the wheel... you don't come back. It's certainly very different from anything I've read before.

So when Larry asked to visit my blog to give a copy of his book away to my readers, I was happy to participate. He's got a big ol' swag pack of books for one of you to enjoy. Check out the video about the giveaway, and enter at the bottom!

And make sure to catch Larry on Twitter, his blog, and Goodreads. :) Happy reading!
