“It’s very well written, I will give it that. Some parts were kind of funny, and I will also give it that. And I liked Arnett as the bold, but contemplative hero.”

About the Book
Eighteen months after the plague, Vann Arnett might be the last unchanged human alive. Barricaded in his Victorian fortress with only his dog for company, he endures nightly taunts from the Kindred—intelligent vampires who’ve built their own dark society in the ruins of civilization. His carefully maintained sanity cracks when a military expedition arrives, bringing a hope he’d long since abandoned.
When the soldiers venture into the tunnels beneath the university, they find far more than they bargained for. When betrayal and monsters collide, Vann must choose between the safety of isolation and the dangerous necessity of trust.
In a world where vampires quote scripture and soldiers commit atrocities, the line between human and monster blurs beyond recognition. Fallen Is Babylon delivers psychological horror that questions what humanity means when the world ends not with a whimper, but with fangs.
What Readers Are Saying
“Fallen Is Babylon by Michael Wentela is not your typical end of the world story. It reminded me of Richard Matheson’s I Am Legend… Wentela gives a story that paints a more realistic picture of what life would be like surrounded by a new species of humanity.”
— 4.0 stars, Amazon Review
“Fallen Is Babylon is a smart take on the apocalypse, especially in the storm of zombie and end of the world novels pouring out of the publishing machine lately… The vampire plague doesn’t affect all people the same, and therefore you get a wide variety of baddies to imagine.”
