About the Book
Welcome to the end of the world. Premium membership required.
The climate has collapsed, there’s water riots in the streets and humanity’s future looks bleak. But that doesn’t mean the ultra-wealthy still can’t live in luxury!
Welcome to Guadiam, a luxury bunker featuring fine dining, the latest in technology and enough workers to make sure the end of the world is hardly a speed bump on your road to total self-actualization. All you need to do to enter is be ungodly rich and connected, sign the absolutely binding contract and then you are locked away from the world with hundreds of your closest friends.
Of course, being an “Underground Innovator” is not without challenges. You must solve your own problems which may include (but are not limited to) insurrection, assault, cannibalism, murder for sport, drugs, public executions, willing dismemberments, unwilling dismemberments, panicking staff and human madness beyond all reason. But don’t let that concern you. You’re better than everyone else! Leave the world behind and head underground to Guadiam. You’ll never want to leave.
Not that you have a choice.

Raves and Reviews
“Bockoven cements himself as one of my favourite authors in the genre. Your Best Chance of Survival is a masterclass in dystopian worldbuilding. A rapid-fire and disturbing descent into claustrophobic nightmare fuel.”
– Marcus Kliewer, New York Times bestselling author of THE CARETAKER
"Mike Bockoven has mastered a style of narrative—epistolatory, with a deep focus on character—that is perfect for the stories he excels at telling. You are with these people, in the very thick of it, as the situations he has such a knack for devising break down by agonizing degrees ... there's an intimacy to Bockoven's horror that is unlike anything I've ever read."
– Nick Cutter, bestselling author of THE DORIANS
