Synopsis

Standardized testing is so much worse in the apocalypse. Caleb Hanson assumed the most exciting part of his field trip scouting in Northern Minnesota would be a rare bird sighting. Instead, he was abducted by hive-minded hexapods and forced to be their children’s teacher. Not the worst way to ride out the end of the world. Two years later, the apocalypse has finally come for Caleb. His savior-captors are murdered, leaving him as the last line of defense for the alien kids he’s grown to know and love. Now, he’ll have to bend his values or watch his students die. All while dealing with untrustworthy allies, ravenous monsters, honorable bounty hunters, and worst of all - xenophobic militants. Between idealism and practicality lies hope for the future. If he can find the strength to pass this final test. Head of the Class is the first book in the System Apocalypse: Liberty series and is set in the bestselling System Apocalypse universe. It is an Apocalyptic LitRPG series that combines science fiction and fantasy elements with game mechanics. This series contains level ups, experience, a snarky AI shield-bot Companion, monsters (both human and otherwise), and a larger than life cast of characters.
