What does it mean to be a rebel, a hero, or the destroyer of habitat and civilization? As a devastated world recovers from war and plight, an unlikely heroine emerges and attempts to rescue distressed rebels from the government’s corruption controlling the rationed food supply and from a rogue general trying to steal the only known honeybees.

And Earth itself fights back.

Following the Great Uprising of the Millennium, the remaining human population in the Third Continent’s forty-four districts—starved and weakened—are dependent on the Authority. The new power structure that emerged after the war rules by fear and tyranny, confiscating property, and feeding the masses poisoned food.

Yet out of the rubble, rebellious clans who dream of a better future emerge, able to grow their own food because of their secret weapon—the last remaining nest of honeybees. Now a war wages between the rebels and the Authority. X and Y, children of the rebellion, have the key to the rebellion’s success: a download that can bring down the Authority once and for all.

Power hungry and corrupt, the Authority’s General Speer is intent on finding the download, along with the rebels’ bees and food stocks. And he will stop at nothing until he rules all the districts.

The fate of humanity hangs in the balance as X and Y join forces with an unlikely heroine and their allies in a race against time. But in a futurist world where survival is paramount and everyone has an agenda, who can they trust?

When the Earth ripped open, the world collapsed.

Storms leveled cities. Energy poured out and twisted life itself, warping people and animals into grotesque forms. Humanity is failing, and the survivors have to fight for scraps in the ruins.

Ronan wakes with no memory, a mark burned into his neck, and instincts that feel more predator than man. Hunted and haunted by visions not his own, he finds a fragile refuge in New Haven, an outpost clinging to survival.

There, he meets Luna. She has her own scars, her own secrets… and a connection to the force that reshaped the Earth, one that may be more dangerous than either of them knows.

As nightmares spread and civilization fades, Ronan and Luna must face the truth about what they are becoming... and what they might unleash.

This post-apocalyptic science fantasy saga blends:

- Dystopian survival

- Primal transformation

- Alien horror and invasion

- Slow-burn romance

Fans of The Last of Us, The Witcher, and The Passage will be hooked.

Survival is no longer human. It is something more.

The explosion is heard for hundreds of miles, the light of the comet seen halfway across the globe. Had the comet hit a few hours earlier in a more populated area, millions would have been killed...

Oliver Banks joined the military to follow in his father’s footsteps but found his calling in the process. Through dedication and perseverance, Oliver earns a coveted position within the elite group of operators of the Regimental Reconnaissance Company. As Oliver battles from the deep jungles of Columbia to the treacherous peaks and valleys of Afghanistan, he learns Bravery and Honor come with a steep price. Beaten down, unsure of his future, and haunted by the fallen brothers he’s left behind. Banks arrives in his hometown of Franklin, North Carolina, hours before a solar flare destroys the power grid.

With lines of communication, technology destroyed, and a deadly virus burning through the rural countryside, Banks finds himself alone and unsure how widespread the carnage is. In a tale fraught with danger and unexpected tests around each corner, Banks is faced with hard choices. Banks can hide away in his mountain refuge or head west in one final bid to locate other survivors and assist with the survival of humanity.
Call Me Stone is the gritty telling of a warrior’s struggle to survive not only the dangers of living in a harsh world but also the conquering of his dark past. Readers will find themselves wondering where their own limits lie long after putting this book down.

The choice you make is the future you create.
Climate-driven plagues haunt humanity, and it’s Regional Director Zuri Hill-Gray’s job to keep the clean-energy grid running.

Zuri has the perfect life—a beautiful home on the Hillstead, a loving family, and a powerful job keeping the LA Basin’s grid humming. If only she didn’t see the ghost of her dead twin in the mirror. Her grief-counselor husband understands too much, her Aunties Cora and Vivian smother her to excess, and her mother can’t look at her daughter without seeing the half that’s missing. Zuri can’t begin to face her sister’s little daughter—to Ruby, Zuri is the ghost.

Which is why she’s running away to work, again, on the anniversary of her sister’s death.

Then a power engineer walks into Zuri’s office and claims someone is stealing energy from Power Island One—and they’ve tried to kill her to cover it up. The more Zuri digs, the more it’s clear someone’s been tinkering in the shut-down fusion labs. They’re going to dangerous lengths to hide it, and it’s been happening right under her nose. Which is how Regional Directors lose their jobs.

Zuri’s already lost her better half—she can’t afford to lose this, too.

You Knew the Price is the second of four tightly-connected solarpunk novels in a near-future climate-fiction series. It’s about our future, how society lives on invisible things, like electricity and trust, that are far too easy to break… and how our most difficult moments are often when we discover the only path forward is healing not just ourselves but the world.

If you enjoyed the optimistic climate solutions in Kim Stanley Robinson’s Ministry for the Future or the cozy cooperative future in Becky Chambers’ Monk and Robot series, you will enjoy Nothing is Promised.
