Apex Stronghold

Kaleb was already dangerous before the world froze. Now the Crucible rewards every kill with Apex Points, and he can spend them to become stronger, forge better weapons, and transform a buried habitat into an expanding fortress. Every rescue adds more people to protect, more resources to manage, and more reasons to keep pushing while the frozen world fills with alien predators and warlords. The odds are brutal, but Kaleb finally has something humanity has been missing: a way to fight back and get stronger doing it. With a growing stronghold, powerful upgrades, and three capable women at his side, he intends to turn survival into victory. Previously published as Frozen Haven with a complete rework.
