With the help of some friendly space travelers, a mild mannered retiree turns into a renegade assassin and extracts his revenge on the worldwide system that keeps the masses in virtual chains, pollutes the water and the air, and rapes the planet for her natural resources, … all in the name of profit, power, and greed.

You will be too.

Disaster arrived and found a home, a pair of coronal mass ejections destroyed the world’s electric grid. Two hundred years later, pockets of survivors scratch out a living.

"Fill the barrels and return", Tillion tells himself. But the sea's waves and the winds of the storm have other plans--to wreck his boat and force him to drift, as he may, north into the hands of the Blues and their righteous sense of justice.

With very little skill required, a reader of my stories would see my blatant reference to forthcoming events that have real events as th ...

In the blossoming dystopia of Alamo City, genetic modification is banned. Enterprising biohackers are beginning to sneak valuable data the old-fashioned way—on any vintage memory cards and drives they can get their hands on. It’s in these piles of electronic junk that Kaylee, an academic deserter, and Jorge, a self-described alien, find clues for how to engineer immortality. All they need to do is successfully biohack a killer parasite and also catch a human to test it on.

But to a lonely girl without a home, the Maker was the goal of a life-long quest. And neither global catastrophe no death itself could keep her from finding him--or keep her from the answer to the only question she ...
