I managed to put together a matching set of Michael McBride's God's End trilogy. One book from an eBay seller in NC, two from a seller in CA. All three are Josh Boone's PC copies.

Pretty cool feeling to find all three!

God’s End is a great trilogy, criminally underrated IMO, as is Michael McBride as an author.

If you like the God’s End trilogy you should check out his Unit 51 trilogy, which I thought was even better.

Congratulations, that's a pretty nice feat. Is McBride still publishing books? He seems to have been absent from the small press world as of late. I haven't read much of his work, but I liked what I did.

He hasn’t had a small press LE in 4 or 5 years, but he’s publishing pretty regularly.

According to his website, it was about this time that he quit his day job and started writing full time.

His Unit 51 trilogy was published as first editions mass market PB.

Then he published the Elimination Protocol trilogy, a first edition hardcover series under the name Michael Laurence, which I believe is his real name (I think McBride is a pseudonym).

Then he started self-publishing, first the stand alone novel Chimera, then another post-apocalyptic trilogy, The Ruination series.

He has another novel listed as upcoming on his webpage: Spores.

Don’t know if this is a stand alone or part of a series.

He had a couple of projects with CD listed on his website, but that was a couple of years ago, and doubt those will ever happen.

He used to publish pretty regularly with Delirium / Darkfuse (now defunct) and Thunderstorm Books, but it’s been at least 5 years since his last TB publication.
