Oh, i'm almost embarrassed to admit what it is lol. But i will say that if you don't like pulp sci-fi about alien invasions, don't bother
The description makes it sound far more corny than it actually is.
Beyond Armageddon by Anthony DeCosmo-
"Earth is invaded by a collection of alien animals--both predators and prey--as well as extraterrestrial militias of varying technological capabilities. Governments fall; cities are overrun. The landscape grows wild, alien forces attempt to carve out zones of control, and humanity no longer sits atop the food chain. Trevor Stone finds himself alone and afraid in this chaotic new world when he meets a strange old man who grants three gifts. First, a well-stocked estate perfect for surviving the initial invasion. Second, the ability to control the fiercest breeds of dogs. Third, access to the genetic memories of mankind. It seems he is all part of a plan; a plan that has set 'rules' to this invasion and one that blurs the line between hero and villain."
I read all 5 books in a row, I couldn't put them down. The books aren't perfect but I found them utterly compelling and I was in tears by the end. Against all odds/last stand scenarios always get my waterworks flowing lol.
