What if civilization came to an abrupt end... What if you were left on your own to survive... If everything had been taken from you would you risk your life to get it back or would you just attempt to hide in the shadows hoping the trouble would all go away? Heroes are not born, they are self made through their actions and deeds. Perhaps there are no more heroes. Perhaps this is the end for man. A handful of survivors are left to decide.

SODIUM Apocalypse is the second thrilling book of this epic adventure. If you have yet to begin reading this series you will want to begin with the first book--SODIUM Harbinger. Grab your copy today!

What are readers saying about this series?
--I hope the series within the series never ends: Sodium, AMP, Omega are a trilogy of not one, not two, but 22 page turners. Great writing; thoughtful and suspenseful. There are so many great books and authors; Arseneault shares the top end of my list.--
--After reading 4 chapter's I was hooked, even finished it in a day.--
--Please write more. I would stay in this series forever if you wrote them forever.--

About the Author

I reside in Central Florida with the wife and two daughters. After thirty years in engineering, my time is now spent chronicling the adventures of fictitious heroes. They are off-world, fighting the good fight, keeping Man alive. For some it was meant to be their calling. For others... not so much. All however are willing to fight until the end. Flip open one of my books. Tag along as unlikely heroes try to conquer the galaxy or save all humanity. Get aboard as you're either with us or against us. This may be your ticket out of here... at least for a short while. Hope you have a great day! --This text refers to the paperback edition.

I usually can’t endorse 5 *, let us wait a few years to see where this goes!

Reviewed in the United States on October 4, 2018

Arseneault is quite an author. This is the only series of his I’ve started reading. So far he’s an amazing author. Excellent proof reading. Technically everything great. Quite a continuation of a story, that I thought was good but very slow. And then it gets great just like #1. I actually can’t wait to read #3. I did read the insert included. I actually don’t know if the science is accurate, but I honestly don’t care. If Arseneault can imagine what he is writing about, and he can, it is possible. I really appreciated that at the end of the book while the scientist could not understand or duplicate some of the alien technologies they seemed to have home grown science work arounds to achieve the same effects. Great book, read the series (stay with it, you’ll be glad you did.
I do want to say that I don’t understand why the guns had kickbacks. I can’t picture it.

Not as good as vol 1, but still good

Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2018

Verified Purchase

After reading the first book I jumped right into vol 2. Hoping for some more adventure and suspense I was a little let down. Yes it was interesting to read about the characters involved, however I wasn't to interested on their tedious jobs. Seemed like every chapter was on repeat; scavange, build, survey- repeat. There was good excitement in the last few chapters but I felt like I didn't gain as much as I could have with this book. I will continue to read the series because it was still a decent apocalyptic story. 3.5 stars
No swearing or adult situations. Good read for young adults.

The series is growing on me...

Reviewed in the United States on February 13, 2014

I reviewed the first SODIUM book rather critically, and one of the things I mentioned was that there is no dialogue in these books. None. They are 100 percent first person narrative, and in the first book I just couldn't get past that. Something about it bothered me.

Despite this, I didn't give up on Mr. Arsenault. I began reading the second volume (this book) and liked how he took the story forward in time, and how the protagonist of this book was a minor character (literally) that had appeared in the last few pages of book 1.

There's still no dialogue, but it doesn't bother me now. It's like these books are diaries that were kept by the main character in each. I'm actually on book 4 now, with plans to read the entire series.

I should mention that there are little niggly things about spelling and punctuation that crop up here and there, and those bother me, but I am overlooking them because I want to find out what happens "in the end." These are mostly things like using "too" when he should use "to" ("...if there was a home to return too."), and failing to put a comma between city names and their states ("Atlanta Georgia" instead of "Atlanta, Georgia"). Both of these are inconsistent, and I have certainly seen worse, but these books could use an editor's touch. (I'm available.)

Sodium 2: Apocalypse ... The aliens are back for 'round two'

Reviewed in the United States on June 15, 2014

Verified Purchase

70 years have passed since the first encounter with the aliens. The machines have returned and still no idea who is because the mechanized invasion and why they hate us so much!

The author has been very creative and while still writing from a first person perspective, the main character has changed. Very intriguing and well written and, again, I found myself being able to see myself as main character. The author keeps the threads of this series together very nicely as he branches out and fleshes out the storyline, adding depth and breadth. I immediately purchased Sodium 3 as soon as I finished book two:) Again, the author has hooked me with his storytelling abilities and I find I am now hooked on both book series, and I am not sorry

Egotist Reforms and Excels

Reviewed in the United States on August 7, 2016

Verified Purchase

Positively a delight to read. Again, the author's main character is an all too human (flawed) individual who adopts a small family and builds a sustainable colony after utter devastation by an alien force. As a child, he was given a tiny piece of alien technology by the hero of book 1 of the series. As an adult struggling to survive after the alien attack, he invents powerful, if crude, weapons his tiny family uses to try to get vengeance for the alien destruction. He will need a terrific amount of luck to make his plans work. I know you will be delighted by this book, as delighted as I am that there is even more to this series.

Great writing, exciting scoff

Reviewed in the United States on December 19, 2013

Verified Purchase

I first came across Sodium as a free e book offer. Even for free I didn't expect much, free books usually aren't that great and the cover art looked pretty cheesy. Wow. I couldn't have been more wrong. After reading the first book I knew I had to get the next one. And now that I read this one I'm pretty sure I'm hooked on a new series. It's well written scifi. Very few books are written that do such a good job and yet don't need to rely on cussing, or constant seat of your pants improbable epic scenarios every two seconds. These books feel real because the characters are real. No one is a super hero, doing impossible things. You could easily see yourself or people you know filling the roles of these protagonists. Very, very good reads. These stand out, and that comes from someone who thinks alien invasion scifi should have it's own separate niche at the book store!

An alien invasion destroys Southern Florida. Through luck and a little foresight one survivor finds two young sisters hiding in their tree house. This begins an epoch challenge to survive and engage the he invaders. This would make an interesting movie.

I won’t give a synopsis of the story as others have already done that; I will however say that if you like stories where the main characters are human and make some really boneheaded mistakes and yet somehow bounce back, then you will love this series.

Outstanding Sci Fi

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 28, 2014

Verified Purchase

One of the best Sci Fi books I have ever read, I love the narration from the lead character. I am on the Sodium 3 now & half way through that one too, the first is probably the slowest but a jolly good read nonetheless. In summary, if you find the emotional aspects a bore, as I do, these books are for you, there is a sprinkling of emotion towards the end but it is such a joy to read the factual, though science fiction, aspects of the unfolding drama without getting caught up in an emotional roller coaster as in most books. I found JRR Tolkien also more factual in his writing having read Lord of the Rings trilogy & The Hobbit, & if I was asked to chose my favourite books to take to a desert island, then I would take every book written by Stephen Arseneault who is, in my opinion, one of the best authors of this genre.

Enjoyed the book more so than Sodium 1 (Harbinger)

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 29, 2015

Enjoyed the book more so than Sodium 1 (Harbinger), but I think this is mainly because I had already read all of the AMP and Omega Series and starting from scratch as it were, was for me a little slow in story development. Knowing what was to come, I couldn't wait to get the astounding technology out there! But good reading nevertheless.

Great, but convenient!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 29, 2018

Verified Purchase

Apacolipse survival story. Excellent and interesting characters but told through the eyes of the lead.

Can run a bit flat on one or two chapters but on the most part, fantastic. Makes you think what you would do in that situation.

My only qualm is that the lead appeared to have too much convenient good luck to survive.

Sodium 2: Apocalypse - a real page turner

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 21, 2013

Verified Purchase

I read the original Sodium 1: Harbinger as a free Kindle download and finding it an enjoyable and entertaining read. There are some vivid descriptions of the countryside and battles with aliens in Yosemite, together with some engaging characters.
I read the first 2 chapters of the second book and I was hooked. An Alien invasion, a gritty survival story, a fantastic fight back and a twist at the end made for an excellent read. It got me thinking about how I would survive in a world without governance.
The book is short, easy to read and packed full of action, I would recommend it to any sci-fi fan.

Aliens have the weapons - mankind has the brains .

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 20, 2014

A very readable , involving , second part of the series . Clever continuity from book 1 gives one a feeling of relating to the characters and scenario , albeit that the 2 books are set decades apart . Nicely scientific approach to alien warfare , as opposed to the gung ho of , say , Independence day . That's 2 books read from the series of 6 - looking forward to reading part 3 soon .
