From #1 New York Times bestselling author Mark Oshiro (The Sun and the Star) comes a deeply compelling and emotionally resonant new novel that puts a sinister spin on the idea that “the children are our future”.

There is little that frightens Arturo Ruiz anymore.

Life in the twenty-first century feels like one historic event after another. He and his friends have been through it all: pandemics. Floods and fires. Active shooters and drills at school. State-sanctioned violence. Still, the teens are expected to model resilience, to boldly march into the future and fulfill the promises of the generations before them.

Or so they had thought. Because tomorrow–the world is going to end.

And the nightmares Arturo had been having―the ones with the buzzing, eerie entities asking terrible questions about survival? Those were meant to be a warning.

Unfortunately for Arturo, his sister, and his two best friends, their parents are no help–abandoning them suddenly and leaving behind only the cryptic message:

We won’t be here when it ends.

This is the story of how to survive the end of the world--or die trying.

WE WON’T BE HERE WHEN IT ENDS is an unflinchingly honest look at the darkest possible timeline, infused with a shocking supernatural twist. Equal parts humanity and horror―this book is perfect for fans of Andrew Joseph White, Carnaby Kim, and Parasyte.
