Aurora [text (large print)] : a novel / by Koepp, David,author.;
In Aurora, Illinois, Aubrey Wheeler is just trying to get by after her semi-criminal ex-husband split, leaving behind his unruly teenage son. Then the lights go out, not just in Aurora but across the globe. A solar storm has knocked out power almost everywhere. Suddenly, all problems are local, very local, and Aubrey must assume the mantle of fierce protector of her suburban neighborhood. Across the country lives Aubrey's estranged brother, Thom. A fantastically wealthy, neurotically over-prepared Silicon Valley CEO, he plans to ride out the crisis in a gilded desert bunker he built for maximum comfort and security. But the complicated history between the siblings is far from over, and what feels like the end of the world is just the beginning of several long-overdue reckonings, which not everyone will survive.

Run : a novel / by Crouch, Blake,author.;
"A gripping apocalyptic thriller about a man and his family running for their lives in an America gone mad-from the New York Times bestselling author of Dark Matter and Recursion. Five days ago, the epidemic of rage began. Four days ago, the rash of senseless murders swept the nation. Three days ago, the President addressed the country and begged for peace-even as the murders increased tenfold. Two days ago, the killers began to mobilize. One day ago, the power went out. And tonight, the killers are reading the names of those to be killed on the Emergency Broadcast System. Jack Colclough is listening over the battery-powered radio on his kitchen table in Albuquerque, and he just heard his name. People are coming to his house to kill him, his wife, his daughter, his son. He doesn't know why, but he doesn't have time to think about that anymore. He only has time to run. Following an ordinary family on a desperate race for safety through an America that's destroying itself, Run is a terrifying, brutally stripped-down thriller from master storyteller Blake Crouch"--
