ABOUT the Series 

​Earth, the only life-sustaining planet within forty light years, was conquered on May 1st, 2017 in a single day. Undetected by our most advanced technology, a seed-sized probe entered our planet’s orbit, disrupted global communications, weaponizing space debris, and now manipulates the planet’s electromagnetic field, turning Earth into a prison. Seven urbanites and four rural neighbors occupy one of these prisons, struggling to work together in this radically transformed world until they can reunite with their families. But the aliens’ program forces them to make impossible choices, forcing foes to become friends and relatives to become strangers. In the Occupation, they are forever changed.
