This is the first book in the PNW Affliction series, book #1. In my opinion the best place to start, because the story starts out small and contained before opening up into the shared story in the subsequent books. Story: Our hero finds himself away from his home the eve of the collapse, trying to figure out what's going on and unable to make it back. Can he find a place to shelter in the darkness before he freezes in the cold, quiet night? Pacific Northwest Affliction 1: Recycled PNW Affliction book #1: Recycled

Our way of life was rotting away in front of our eyes for decades before the violent collapse, but it was an inconvenient truth that no one wanted to address and only a few dared to speak of in private with close friends. It wasn’t discussed in the news, nor was it debated in the capital. It was ignored for as long as it could be until it couldn’t be ignored anymore.
