Above the Ground
Autor Matthew Medney, Robert Greenbergeren Limba Engleză Hardback – 15 sep 2026
100 years ago, the Native Americans vanished. No one knew why, no one knew how. The world was stunned - and then it moved on.
Now, nuclear annihilation has reshaped everything. Betty Anders, a small-town teacher in Nebraska, survived the bombs with her husband David. As they emerge from their bunker into a post-apocalyptic world, they discover something impossible: a civilization rebuilt with technology and knowledge that shouldn't exist. Science that leaps centuries ahead. A society without suffering.
And Betty can't shake the feeling that these events are connected to the great vanishing of 100 years ago.
Above the Ground is a layered, thought-provoking novel that examines racial inequality, the cost of progress, and what humanity could achieve if it stopped destroying itself. It's post-apocalyptic fiction with a radical twist - what if the apocalypse was the beginning, not the end?
Perfect for fans of: Station Eleven, The Road, Black Mirror, Octavia Butler, and N.K. Jemisin.

100 years ago, they vanished. No one knew why, no one knew how - no one knew anything. The scientists were stunned, hell the world was stunned, and as for myself, I knew it was a moment that would haunt our history. My name is Betty Anders, a small-town teacher with an intrepid husband. David and I lived our peaceful, uneventful lives in Nebraska: I taught, while he pursued his research in biogenetic engineering. His breakthrough discovery - quantum entangled botany - gave us hope for a brighter, more sustainable future... which turned to utter fear when the government took it too far.
