Darkness Falls
Nature’s Fury #1
by AE Faulkner
Genre: YA Dystopian
As nature tires of human destruction, two sisters must face a changing
environment that stands between them and survival.
When Quinn and Riley set out on a family vacation with their parents, the
trip ends before it begins. Mother Nature interferes with their
plans, setting off a sequence of events that thrusts the teens into a
hostile landscape.
Stranded, with limited supplies, struggling to figure out who they can trust
along the way, they must determine how to survive nature’s evolving fury.
AE Faulkner is a young adult dystopian author. Her debut novel, Darkness
Falls, is the first book in the Nature’s Fury series, which explores
the Earth’s response to humans poisoning her streams, abusing her
animals and destroying her beauty.
She has a bachelor’s degree in marketing from Millersville University
and a master’s degree in advertising, public relations &
journalism from Temple University.
Although she escaped in books as a child, college textbooks sucked the fun out
of reading. Years later, The Hunger Games trilogy became the spark
that rekindled her love of books. After devouring that series, she
quickly became captivated by dystopian novels.
After several years of reading them, she decided to take a stab at writing
one that combined her love for nature with her fear of human
destruction

Thanks for having me!! 🙂
Welcome to the Dragon’s Den! Do you have a favorite quote you’d like to share?
Thanks for asking! It’s hard to pick just one but I think I’ll go with this:
As I silently wish the night away, the next, and last, cry I hear is abruptly cut short. I’m not sure which is worse—the sound of someone’s pain and fear, or the silence of their extinguished existence.
Oh that is a good quote! It’s enticing! What was your inspiration for this book?
Thank you 🙂 More and more, I feel voiceless and powerless when it comes to protecting our natural resources and wildlife. As my frustration has grown, I decided to pour it into words. I started writing this book in January 2018 – as a New Year’s resolution. It became therapeutic as writing was an outlet for my negative feelings.
So, I guess you could say I take out my frustrations on my characters 😉
I think we all feel that way. To feel empowered you do what you can and support those who are addressing the bigger issue.
Agreed 🙂
