Overview

Eighty-five years after a meteor strike poisoned the Earth, the last of humanity survives in Meridian Station, a patchwork space habitat slowly running out of air. When the Council's oxygen-rationing policy turns lethal, the station sends eighty young volunteers down to the surface in a final, desperate gamble: find out if the ground can support life again.

Jonah Ward and his fellow Vanguard survivors crash-land into a world they were told was empty and discover it isn't. A bunker community that never evacuated. A wilderness-dwelling people transformed by generations of radiation exposure. A hidden military garrison still guarding its post after eighty-five years of silence. And among the eighty themselves, a fracture: half follow Jonah's instinct toward trust, half follow security cadet Reeve Calloway's instinct toward control.

With Meridian's air running out faster than anyone projected, four communities who've spent eighty-five years surviving in careful isolation from one another must do something none of them have ever tried: trust each other enough to build a future together before the people above them run out of time to come home.

The Long Descent is a story about what's left when the systems that were supposed to protect us fail, and about the slow, costly, human work of rebuilding trust from nothing.
