In the mid-21st century, the worlds energy and food resources rapidly declined. Ninety percent of humanity died. An historian named Ahmad Riley left the only remaining records of those years. This cryptic collection of interviews documents the last gasp of a once-great civilization.
This sweeping, prophetic work takes the reader to a nightmarish future world: an eerily empty Los Angeles, a space station at the fringes of the galaxy, a secret underground city, a Mexican expat beach town, and the snowbound northern city that is the corporate nerve center of the empire.
In Dark Mountain the reader sees the decadent last years of America through the eyes of those who lived it. We meet a drug-addled congressional aide on the run from the Company; a young Angeleno addicted to the System; office rats serving the corporation that owns them; the space freaks who escaped earth while they could; and the survivors of the collapse, scrounging in the wreckage of America.
In a steel-and-lead-encased bunker 20 feet below the basement level of his house, a soldier waits for his final orders. On the surface, a plague ravages the planet, infecting over 90% of the populace. The bacterium burrows through the brain, destroying all signs of humanity and leaving behind little more than base, prehistoric instincts. The infected turn into hyper-aggressive predators, with an insatiable desire to kill and feed. Some day soon, the soldier will have to open the hatch to his bunker, and step out into this new wasteland, to complete his mission: SUBVENIRE REFECTUS.
TO RESCUE AND REBUILD.
Nothing has gone according to plan.
To Captain Lee Harden, Project Hometown feels like a distant dream and the completion of his mission seems unattainable.
Wounded and weaponless, he has stumbled upon a group of survivors that seems willing to help. But a tragedy in the group causes a deep rift to come to light and forces him into action. In the chaos of the world outside, Lee is pursued by a new threat: someone who will stop at nothing to get what he has.

The Days and Months We Were First Born
In the summer of 2068, New Yorker Martin Jacob had a sweet life ahead of him. He had recently graduated from NYU. He spent most of his time with his artist girlfriend, who had a wonderful apartment in Harlem. And in September, he was to begin his career as a History teacher for a private school in Connecticut. An easy life was laid out before him. Then a man-made virus came along, and it turned his world upside down.
Martin wakes to find a disheveled President addressing the nation. His girlfriend is driven mad with grief, right before his very eyes. His parents call to inform him that they are going to die. And he steps outside to find Martial Law on the streets.
"The Days and Months We Were First Born- The Unraveling" is book one of Martin's epic tale of survival. At times funny, at times heartbreaking, and at times action packed, this book will take the reader on an unforgettable journey.
In the aftermath of a devastating EMP event, an unprepared suburban Texas school teacher battles his way across a thousand miles of post-apocalyptic terrain to rescue his wife and son stranded in Tennessee.
Marc Sortel is a recently unemployed school teacher living in a suburb of Dallas, Texas. His wife and son have flown to Tennessee for an extended summer vacation with family while Marc stays home trying to short sell his double mortgaged house. Like most modern American males, he's utterly dependent upon the widely available conveniences of a technological culture. What he never realized is that a silicon based society fueled by the free flow of electricity can be transformed into a medieval landscape in a flash.
Life expectancy in the pre-modern world was only 30 years of age.
Marc is about to find out why.
Shutdown A story of economic collapse and hope
Yes, you already know from the title that the whole American experiment will be murdered. But that doesn't stop you from wanting to see the murder weapon, learn the effect on the survivors and most of all, find out who dunnit. Shut Down lets you get up close and see the bloodstains on the pavement. And it also shows how a maddeningly complex financial system makes global industrial civilization more immediately vulnerable than such threats as climate change, terrorism, or even peak oil and peak everything.
You too might get nightmares after reading Shut Down. But, if they inspire you to start prepping your family for an emergency of any kind or to start working with your neighbors to start making your community resilient enough to deal with a more uncertain future along the lines of the Transition Movement, or both, then the bad dreams will be for a very good cause.
