A near-future survival road trip novel blending science fiction, romance, and self-discovery.

Traveling Light Show by Kendra Tillman-Soens is a 376‑page science‑fiction‑infused novel set in a world where Earth has been given a death sentence — only about a week and a half remain. The story follows Charlie McCoy, a woman with a history of surviving multiple end‑of‑the‑world scenarios (she’s been “around the sun” 46 times), who now faces a potentially real apocalypse Amazon.

When the final countdown begins, Charlie must choose between fleeing to one of the few remaining safe zones with the majority of humanity — a life of camping and isolation — or meeting the end head‑on. Either way, her path leads to a road trip across the country, forcing her to confront love, loss, and redemption Amazon+1.

Along the journey, she learns the mysteries of the universe from unexpected sources and discovers what she’s truly made of. The narrative blends speculative fiction with emotional depth, exploring themes of resilience, identity, and the human spirit in the face of extinction
