"This trilogy gets better with each book." —Library Journal
When technology stopped working, the world as they knew it ended.
In a secluded cabin, John and his loved ones have survived. He should feel grateful. But his family is in his face 24/7, he has to watch his best friend, Arden, and brother, Gabriel, flaunt their love, and as a techie in a Luddite world he's pretty much useless. The cabin is brimming with people, but he feels utterly alone.
Until he catches Mr. Tall, Blond and Gorgeous raiding their garden. Mykhail is an astrophysics student, he makes John's gaydar ping like crazy and he thinks he knows what caused the devastation. He's on a journey to his university to find answers, and John invites himself along. Partly to get out of the house, and partly because he can't let Mykhail go without acting on the mutual attraction that's so obvious even John's mom is playing matchmaker.
The closer they get to campus, the more Mykhail lets down his walls. But with answers come secrets both devastating and deadly, and before they can save the world, they'll have to save themselves.

      Cole (Radio Silence) embeds a meet-cute between gawky, good-natured, and truly adorable gay 20-somethings into the poorly constructed postapocalyptic world of her Off the Grid series. A solar flare has taken out electrical and communications grids worldwide. Jang-wan “John” Seong is hiding out at his parents’ upstate New York home with his brother, Gabriel; their sister, Maggie; Gabriel’s girlfriend, Arden; and the mother and infant they’ve taken in. After he catches tall, blond astrophysics grad student Mykhail Shevchenko in their tomato patch, the family offers the stranger wary hospitality, and when he heads to Burnell University to find a professor who may know more about the solar flare, John joins him, motivated by a potent combination of attraction to Mykhail and a desire to fix the world. Resource-hoarding bullies, power-hungry scientists, and racist, abusive soldiers make for flat, uninteresting antagonists, and though the series will probably continue to explore the setting’s mysteries, the fact that this volume ends as soon as the romantic outcome is assured feels disappointingly abrupt.
