Eleven years ago, they invaded Planet Earth, and 85% of humanity was killed off. Yet even in the midst of hiding from the gorgons in 2037, a new enemy is rising.

But so is a resistance.

Author Aaron Ryan picks up right where he left off in his emotional prequel, Dissonance Volume Zero: Revelation, laying the framework for a powerful continuation of the series that all started with Dissonance Volume I: Reality. In this new installment, Dissonance Volume Up: Rising, the resistance rises to fight back against two enemies. Set in the post-apocalyptic landscape of Earth in 2037, the survival of mankind truly hinges upon the endurance of a select few.

It has been eleven years after an alien invasion wiped out 85% of humanity. Most survivors live in underground bunkers called 'Blockades' under military protection. The rest are scattered abroad, eking out an existence in the shadows, avoiding gorgons at all costs. In this new dystopian, post-apocalyptic world, four key figures emerge after the alien invasion: Rosalita Campion. Miguel Monzon. Allison Trudy. Joseph Bassett.

All will be key players in the fight to survive the gorgons, to be sure; but another war is brewing, and it is one that will leave its mark on all of them: a war against one of their very own. One who will stop at nothing to cling to power. One whose sinister aims placed the world in peril. One who is as dangerous as the gorgons themselves. Will she win? Or will the growing Resistance prove stronger?

Join the Resistance as the volume finally gets turned UP from Zero, growing in intensity and strength...in Dissonance Volume Up: Rising, the second prequel to the bestselling dystopian alien invasion trilogy.
