As a reporter, I’ve seen firsthand what the Awaken virus does to people you love, turning them into mindless beasts intent on violence. That’s why I’m staying safe inside my apartment. Women are getting kidnapped right off the streets in broad daylight. Rumors say there’s a group of Awakened living under New York, and they’re responsible for the disappearances.

Wells’ dystopian fiction masterpiece! A man sleeps for 203 years, waking up in a completely transformed London in which he has become the richest man in the world. The future is revealed to him in all its horrors and malformities.

Civilisation has ended. In a bid to make us more productive, to give us more time, science took sleep from humanity. But sleeplessness turned people into feral monsters, and now a small group of scientists are trapped in the Tower of London, consumed by guilt at what they have done and desperately searching for a cure. And then one day, as the last ravens circle, two miraculous survivors walk into the Tower.

After the devastating Noxidone outbreak topples Egglemore, the city’s survivors face insurmountable odds in their search for safety. Violence spreads, society fractures, and families are torn apart as the population wakes up to a deadly new threat. With sleep as the enemy and the outbreak evolving, nowhere is safe.

The town of Egglemore is waking up to a terrifying epidemic. Those who have taken Noxidone are trapped in a violent, hallucinatory state, attacking other residents in increasingly brutal ways.
