Ikinagulat ng buong mundo ang muling pagbabalik ni Johan. Ang inakala nilang bayaning nag-alay ng buhay para sa pagkakaisa at kapayapaan ay muling gumising mula sa kanyang mahimbing na pagkakatulog. Ito ay sa kadahilanang isang gyera na naman ng buong mundo ang muling nagbabadya. Hindi nagustuhan ng karamihan ang kanyang pagbabalik. Ang iba naman ay humanga na lamang sa kanyang talino sa pagdedesisyon at pagpaplano. Ngunit paano nya mapoprotektahan ang bansa laban sa mapanirang imperyo ng Europa kung kakaunti na lamang ang pwersa ng Pilipinas laban sa kanila? May magagawa pa kaya ang isang tulad niya kung muling ibinabalik ng European Union ang MEMO© at ang memory gene upang hatiin muli ang sangkatauhan; mabuhay lamang ang mga mayayaman at patuloy lamang na maghirap ang mga bid? Magagawa niya kayang wasakin nang tuluyan ang sistemang ito ngayong muli siyang nagbalik? Mababago nya kaya ang lahat kahit na napahina ng nakaraang gulo ang pananaw ng mga Pilipino pagdating sa kanilang kakayahan upang lumaban?

Dalawang taon na ang nakararaan matapos ang insidenteng naganap sa Pilipinas, natunghayan ng buong mundo ang pagbagsak ng isang diktador na nagngangalang Johan Klein. Sinubukan niyang manipulahin ang lahat ng gumagamit ng memory gene upang magkaroon ng pagbabago sa sistema ng buong mundo gamit ang MCM o Memory Control Maneuver. Ito ang programang ginawa ng MEMO upang kontrolin ang lahat ng tao sa mundo na gumagamit ng memory gene upang pabagsakin ang isang bansa, tanggalin ang mga balakid sa daraanan ng MEMO at gawing matiwasay ang pamumuhay ng bawat gumagamit nito sa paraan ng pagcontrol. Hindi ito nagustuhan ng mga tao, bagkus ay ipinakita lamang ni Johan ang kung anong kayang gawin ng MEMO upang sirain ang sangkatauhan. Inalay niya ang sariling buhay para lang baguhin ang sistema ng buong mundo. Pinalabas niyang si Helena ang kumitil sa kanya upang siya ang kilalanin bilang tunay na bayani. Lubos namang nalungkot si Helena sa ginawa ng binata ngunit naniwala naman ang mga tao na dahil sa kanya ay nagkaroon ng pagbabago. Tuluyang bumagsak ang kompanyang MEMO. Naging panatag ang buhay ng bawat tao at tuluyan na ring nasira ang caste system sa buong mundo na humati sa lipunan sa mahabang panahon. Naging tahimik ang bawat isa ngunit isang balita ang gumimbal sa buong mundo. Natuklasan ng gobyerno na nawawala ang MCM program, pinaniniwalaang ipinasa ito ni Johan Klein sa isang di kilalang tao na tinatawag na Subject 1. Dahil dito ay naglunsad ang pamahalaan ng bawat bansa ng ilang fact finding committee upang hanapin ang MCM program at alamin ang tunay na pagkatao ng Subject 1. Marami na ring iba't-ibang organisasyon ang nakikipag-agawan sa naturang programa upang baguhin ito at i-hack upang hindi lamang DNA ni Johan ang makapag-activate sa naturang program. Ang mga di kilalang organisasyon na lumalantad sa lipunan ay patuloy din na naghahanap sa naturang programa na maaari nilang gamitin sa pansariling kapakanan at maaaring ikasira ng buong sangkatauhan.

Philippines: year 2300 Ang panahon kung saan ang Pilipinas ay nahahati sa tatlong paksyon na tila caste system na pamumuhay; una, ang mga bid (ang pinaka mababang uri ng pamumuhay o ang pinakamahirap). Pangalawa, ang mga commoner (middle class napamumuhay). At ang huli ang pinakamataas na antas ng pamumuhay, ang mga bidders. Kung bakit bidders? Sila ang may kakayahan para bumili ng mga bid o kahit na commoner para mailipat ang kanilang memory gene sa ibang katawan at masabing imortal sila. Ang memory gene na ito ay inimbento ng kompanyang MEMO© na hawak ng kasalukuyang diplomatic government. Isang eksperimontong pumasa sa Europe at patuloy na ginagamit ng mga bidders upang mabuhay sa kahit gaano pa kahabang siglo.

In a world where security cameras prove what you have done and databases define who you are, the few who know how to manipulate the technology can play God. They can change the future; they can alter the past. They can make big money, they can save the world, and they can get away with murder over and over again. Danielle Leaf grew up believing she was safe. Now she knows she was wrong. Award-winning author Jon Evans returns with new heroes and a compulsive, fast-paced story that examines issues of Third World exploitation and the extreme edge of anti-capitalist activism. Invisible Armies is Cold War suspense for the modern age, a thriller that looks behind the power of protests and the politics of big business. Reviews "Thought-provoking ... Invisible Armies is an intriguing, pacy read and Mr Evans shows great potential."-The Economist "A tough-as-nails technothriller... People who aren't morons and like thriller novels ought to read this."-Bruce Sterling "Evans has created a new genre, the travelogue as fast-paced action thriller."-Montreal Gazette About the Author Jon Evans's novels have been published around the world, translated into half a dozen languages, and praised by The Economist, The Times of London, and the Washington Post.

In one day, the world succumbed to a pestilence that decimated the living. In its place rose a new species: vicious, gruesome, wandering zombies with an insatiable hunger for the living. Still in her twenties, Cash has watched her friends die, only to walk again. An office worker with few survival skills, she joins up with Clutch, a grizzled Army veteran with PTSD. Together, they flee the city and struggle through the nine circles of hell, with nothing but Clutch's military experience and Cash's determination to live. As they fight to survive in the zombie inferno, they quickly discover that nowhere is safe from the undead...or the living. (100 Days in Deadland is a journey through the first poem in Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy, the classic tale on the horrors of hell... zombie apocalypse style!) (Note: This is a draft so please excuse any errors. The finished novel is available in paperback, ebook, and audiobook).

An acclaimed, award-winning thriller, published and translated around the world, now freely available on Wattpad. Paul Wood is a modern vagabond, a man who chooses to leave the comforts of San Francisco to spend months backpacking through some of the world's most challenging terrain. While hiking in the Himalayas, Paul gets more of a rush than he bargained for when he finds the body of a murdered hiker - mutilated in a way he has witnessed once before, in Africa, years ago and thousands of miles away. The police in Nepal, anxious to quell a scandal, close the case and declare the victim a suicide. Only Paul is left to search for answers. He reaches out to his farflung tribe of fellow backpackers for help, and his discoveries lead him to a terrible conclusion: a killer is stalking the international backpacker trail, preying on victims in wild places far beyond the reach of any authorities. A killer whom Paul may already know. Finding the murderer becomes an obsession that leads Paul from Himalayan peaks, through the jungles of Indonesia, across the bleak Sahara desert -- and into some of the darkest places imaginable... Dark Places won the 2005 Arthur Ellis Award for Best First Novel. Reviews "You're hooked ... the characters are delightfully delineated ... beautifully controlled ... Evans contrives to slip the necessary specialist net-head detail into the plot without being boring or patronising. He can also pin down a character with a few details deftly brushed in ... A pacy thriller for the 21st century." - The Times "Anyone would enjoy Evans' clever, relentlessly absorbing debut thriller that becomes a lot more than just another serial-killer mystery." - The Ottawa Citizen "In this haunting suspense debut, Evans takes the reader on a page-turning adventure across five continents ... (a) spooky, inventive tale." - Publishers Weekly
