AMBER'S JOURNAL The aliens hovered in orbit around the Earth, silent and uncommunicative, until the world governments decided to do something. When their ships had been reduced to one, they struck, throwing the planet into the Dark Ages by wiping out power, communication, commerce, and in the wake of destruction, morality. That morning, John was a construction worker on his way to a job. By evening, he was racing back across the state to make sure his family was all right, and rescuing innocent people from men who cast aside their consciences with their cell phones. His companion in his journey was Amber, a college student trying to get home on a scooter, the perfect target for the animals now roaming the highways. Together, they learned to survive in a dog-eat-dog world, finding pockets of humanity where people still believed in God and held out their hands to help. DIABLO Ten years after the aliens struck, John regained his awareness in a brutal mining pit, enslaved by the aliens' mind control and the harsh conditions. He played their games and took his chances, and broke free, carrying samples of the red stones the aliens sought. Somewhere out in the world, someone had the technology to figure out what those stones were, and how to use them to destroy the aliens. In his journey, he learned how the rest of the world had survived the last ten years -- some working together, others by brutalizing and enslaving those around them. Almost reluctantly, he became the hero and rescuer and leader he never thought he could be. And when the chance came to fight back against the aliens, it was at the risk of everything and everyone he had come to love.

#2 2020John is a Class C citizen in the Federation that has taken the place of the United States in a future that might yet be. Everything is controlled, and those who don''t fit into the narrow mindset are re-educated, sent away to the war on the African Front, or simply executed by hired killers.Crippled in the alleged accident that killed his family, John lives on the fringe, holding onto his independence of mind and constantly running the risk of being punished and re-educated. Memories of his near-brushes with death haunt him.His Uncle Albert, supposedly the only family he has, is a man of mystery and power, and he sends for John to join him in a hidden, secret military base on the eve of what will eventually be called simply Destruction. There, Albert and John follow through with a carefully designed plan that will let a select few survive, to emerge into the world of the future. The question is whether any of them deserve to live.#3 2021Bill is relegated to Class C because he won''t let the Federation determine how he thinks, what he values. Then his friend John sends him a warning that reaches him just hours before Destruction overtakes the world he knows. That warning saves his life. Unlike those around him, Bill knows how to think for himself, and that makes all the difference in the frantic race away from the spreading wake of Destruction.On his journey of survival, he picks up one refugee after another, and finds himself in charge of a growing community. The simple expedient of putting on a discarded uniform because he needs warm clothes turns him into Major Bill, giving him the authority he needs to protect the people who depend on him. It doesn''t help make the brutal decisions any easier, and Bill becomes a man he never intended to be-but the man that this small remnant of civilization needs if they are to survive.

What would you do if your whole world was torn apart in the blink of a chaotic moment? What if everything, your home, your mom, your only friend and most of all your source of hope, strength and love, your father, was suddenly and viciously ripped away? What if you were the sixteen year old spoiled daughter of the nation''s top military leader and you were left in the abandoned ruins of your home, left to the reality of this new world where the strong take from the weak and evil barbarism rules the land? Join Celeste as she struggles to survive, find her father and her future.Celeste is the fourth story out of eight apocalyptic future stories. Although each story stands alone many events, characters and chronology tie all the stories together.
