Red Sky is an apocalyptic saga where crimson dust clouds, collapsing skies, and cosmic upheavals disrupt ordinary life. Each chapter follows families, scientists, and seekers struggling between disbelief and survival as the world unravels. These chapters can be read in sequence as a novel—or individually as vivid glimpses into a planet on the brink.
A crimson haze descends on Little Cottonwood Canyon as a family scrambles to seal their home against an otherworldly dust. Sixteen-year-old Bryce Mitchell fights rising fear while his father recalls warnings from Uncle David—hints of something cosmic, silenced until it was too late. As the sky shifts from dust to falling stones, the Mitchells retreat into their hidden shelter, unaware they are facing the opening salvo of a disaster that will change everything.
A passenger jet plunges through crimson dust, its engines failing as chaos erupts inside the cabin. Manny Volensky clings to his leather case—his life’s work—and whispers a prayer to see his daughter again. With hope and terror colliding at thirty thousand feet, survival is anything but certain.
In the chaos outside Denver International Airport, Dr. David Mitchell watches a jet fall from the sky, crippled by red dust and blue fire. Passengers stagger from the wreckage as panic grips the city. But before David can rush to help, a wild-eyed stranger charges from the ravine—forcing him to confront danger far closer than the storm above.
In the aftermath of a near-crash, Manny Volensky and Dr. David Mitchell finally collide—two men bound by the same cosmic threat but divided by pride, fear, and truth. Amid swirling red dust and growing dread, Manny demands action while David clings to denial. Their uneasy alliance may be the only hope of sounding the warning before time runs out.
Cynthia Walker faces a career-defining interview in Los Angeles, dressed in her power color red and armed with groundbreaking research. But when questions turn to her infamous father, Manny Volynsky, she bristles—torn between love, resentment, and the shadow of his controversial legacy. On the eve of disaster, Cynthia wonders if she is proving him wrong… or carrying on his fight.
When the crimson sky trembles and a comet burns above the city, Manny and Arman confront the clash between prophecy and science. From hotel café conversations to global chaos on every screen, the world begins to shiver under the comet’s approach. Manny knows the time has come—the first trumpet has sounded.
In the Oval Office, President Sanchez weighs a dangerous request: give fringe scientist Manny Volynsky a platform at a national conference. As his advisor outlines the Electric Universe theory—and unsettling anomalies in the sun—faith, politics, and science collide. If Volynsky is right, the stakes are nothing less than cosmic catastrophe.
As the morning sky dims with no eclipse forecasted, Dr. David Mitchell races to confirm the unthinkable: the sun itself is flickering. Comets strike, sunspots merge, and plasma filaments twist like a wounded star. Forced to face the press with no answers, David begins to suspect the impossible—that Manny Volynsky may have been right all along.
At a tense press conference, Dr. David Mitchell dodges reporters’ questions about the rogue object and the sun’s eerie blackout. But when bulldog journalist Stan Johnson presses too far, David’s mask slips—and a secret deal with Washington threatens to unravel. In the shadow of red skies, ambition and survival collide.
As fragments of a shattered comet slam into Mars, David Mitchell watches the Red Planet ring like a bell—while a relentless reporter pushes him to admit the unthinkable. Did the impact shift Mars closer to Earth? With red skies spreading and secrets mounting, David faces a choice between truth, spin, and survival.
At Denver International Airport, Manny Volynsky takes center stage, warning stunned travelers of poisoned waters, falling fire, and a rogue planet that could slow Earth’s rotation. Dr. David Mitchell pushes back, desperate to silence panic—but when live footage shows fire raining on Seattle, even he feels a splinter of doubt pierce his certainty.
From the ISS, astronauts watch Earth’s skies erupt in red and violet storms as half of Russia goes dark. When communications fail and spectral energy drains their station, Commander Jacob Conner sends one final message: they may be the first casualties of a planetary catastrophe already sweeping the world.
At Denver’s dust-choked airport, Cynthia Walker reunites with her father—only to see him swept into David Mitchell’s orbit. As sparks flare between Cynthia and David, old wounds resurface, rivalries ignite, and powerful figures gather for a secret flight to Washington. With red skies looming, the stage is set for conflict as personal histories collide with planetary peril.
Cynthia Walker comes face-to-face with old betrayals as her father insists on joining the mission and rivalries flare between David, Elena, and John Grady. With red dust grounding flights and a government-chartered jet waiting, the uneasy team is finally assembled—bound for Washington as the true storm closes in.
High above the dust-shrouded Midwest, Manny, Cynthia, Elena, and David witness auroras blazing far south of their natural range. As David finally admits the truth—that Earth is about to be struck by the largest solar storm ever recorded—the fragile alliance fractures between secrecy, science, and prophecy. With satellites, power grids, and entire nations at risk, the warning can no longer be contained.
15 hours to Thunderbolt The Gulfstream hummed steadily through the thinning air as they crossed into the eastern seaboard corridor. David stared through the cabin window, watching crimson auroras ripple across the sky like silk torn by invisible fingers. He could feel the dimmed cabin lights pressing in around him, wrapping the four of them
Descending into Washington, D.C., David Mitchell watches the nation’s capital burning under crimson auroras. Power grids fail, chaos spreads, and the first tremors of disaster ripple through the earth. When Blackstone tries to delay them for a presidential briefing, David chooses truth over protocol—just as the quakes begin.
In a bunker beneath Washington, David Mitchell breaks protocol to reveal the truth: the threat isn’t a comet but a rogue planetary body destabilizing Earth’s systems. As Blackstone fights to contain panic, David, Manny, and their team press for full disclosure—igniting a final confrontation over secrecy, science, and survival.
Before the world’s press, David Mitchell breaks from Blackstone’s script and declares the unthinkable: the intruder is not a comet, but a rogue planet locked into repeated passes with Earth. Cameras capture the moment as Cynthia, Elena, and Grady stand with him—and as David turns the microphone over to Manny Volynsky, who frames the crisis not as an anomaly but as a reckoning. The mantle of truth passes into full public view.
Manny seizes the podium and shocks the world with a live space telescope feed: a massive rogue planet, trailing dust and plasma, racing toward Earth. As scientists and reporters look on, he delivers a stark warning—seek shelter underground before the countdown runs out. With minutes to spare, his prophecy collides with reality as the first meteorites streak across the night sky.
As fire rains from the heavens, the press hall becomes a war zone. Meteorite fragments shatter windows, tear through walls, and cut down the crowd like shrapnel. David shields Cynthia beneath the collapsing podium curtain, clinging to survival while screams and explosions echo in the dark. Outside, the capital burns; inside, the reckoning has begun.
The auditorium lies in ruins, a graveyard of shattered bodies and broken lives. Cynthia finds her father alive amid the carnage, but the relief is short-lived. As survivors stagger in shock, Manny warns this is only the beginning—the first wave of a cataclysm that will tear the earth apart like thunderbolts from the gods.
Fleeing the ruins of Washington, David, Cynthia, and Manny are airlifted to the legendary Greenbrier bunker. Outside, desperate crowds storm the gates; inside, the survivors descend into the mountain’s reinforced halls. As the rogue planet rises red on the horizon, the earth trembles—the next phase has begun.
From the depths of the Greenbrier, survivors watch the skies convulse as the rogue planet unleashes titanic plasma discharges. Cities fall, seas boil, mountains erupt, and the very crust of the Earth groans under celestial assault. The reckoning has begun.
Beneath the Greenbrier, Manny, David, and Cynthia brace as Earth becomes part of a cosmic circuit. Plasma arcs scour the surface, the atmosphere screams with charge, and the rogue planet looms overhead. Survival depends on walls of steel—and memory of what came before.
Emerging from the Greenbrier bunker, David, Cynthia, and Manny face a world remade by plasma storms and cosmic fire. Valleys have become canyons, forests lie in ash, and even the moon bears fresh scars. Yet as the rogue planet recedes, the Earth still hums—scarred, alive, and waiting to be remembered.
In this bonus flashback, Cynthia Volynsky sits through one of her father Manny’s final Princeton lectures—half embarrassed, half proud. What begins as an unwanted classroom debate over Egypt’s chronology becomes a window into their bond: tension between science and faith, generational conviction, and a daughter learning to love her father’s unshakable voice.
