The last book in the series, 2125: Home of the Brave, will launch in less than two weeks, July 24 to be precise. This book closes the story on our hero, Jack Kennedy. The theme for the final book: The madness must end. He and his family have been trying to evade the cannibals who have taken over our country for four long years, since the evening of July 3, 2121, when he and Tom Wainwright wandered into the nearby Ottumwa Free City.
In book one, 2121: Twilight’s Last Gleaming, they are forced to leave the only home they’ve ever known. As they discover how widespread the cannibal epidemic has become, they eventually arrive near the ruins of San Diego, California. But their successful escape is short-lived, when they discover the cannibal city of Los Muertos, built on the ruins of Los Angeles.
So dawns the new year and the next adventure, 2122: The Perilous Fight. In book one, cannibalism was about keeping the masses of people fed and controlled. This time, it is personal. One member of Oren Marshall’s family has made an epiphany. All of the problems the cannibals have faced are due to one person: Jack Kennedy. Henry Marshall was mayor in Ottumwa when Jack and Tom stopped by for dinner. He was HHS Director for Kansas City when the caravan from the co-op passed through. Henry is convinced that only Jack’s death can keep the cannibal dream alive.
After somehow surviving the maniac, events return to normal for the co-op farmers who have now resettled the Central Valley of California. The Orenite cannibals have been forced to flee their stronghold and head north. Peace has come at last, or has it? 2123: Dawn’s Early Light is a tale of personal vendetta, and the retaking of the United States by the cannibals. It also introduces the Olympians and their sentient robots. We discover that Oren Marshall was not the originator of the cannibal craziness. He is following the lead of his extended family. The robots will discover the horrors of the Clarksville slaughterhouse, and the massive human cattle-lot known as The Atlanta Society. It will end with the assassination of the sitting president, a cannibal as well.
Life turns normal as 2125: Home of the Brave begins. Not for long though. The collapse of the United States and Caliphate invasion has forced the remaining cannibals to the San Francisco Bay Area. Instead of one million, there are now ten million cannibals. They also have an army, nuclear weapons, and a plan to take over the world. In this fast-paced action thriller, old enemies become friends, the Olympians face extinction, and Jack Kennedy goes to war. The madness will end, but not before Jack faces the butcher more than once.
All e-books are on special during July. As a proud #INDIE #RRBC author, I hope you check them out.
My latest series is called the Revolution series, and it is my first venture into the Dystopian or Post-Apocalyptic genre. As far as I know today, there will be four books, two of which have been published, one is ready for publication, and the final book is still undergoing a final reread before editing, and cover design. The original concept came from the last book I wrote before starting this journey, The Old House: An Everlasting Love Story.
These books tell the story of Jack Kennedy, a boy born in 2107. In his world, America is in shambles. Long before he was born, the national debt became unsustainable, causing the currency and economy to collapse. Since the USA is such a large part of the global economy, the world economy collapsed as well. Now, the political and economic elites live in luxury in their domed city-centers, while everyone else lives in squalor. The domes are surrounded by weathered tenements where the workers eek out an existence. Further out, the poor live in miserable slums. The cities are walled to offer some protection, while the countryside is overrun by gangs and terrorists.
