The Journey is a story of resilience, survival, and the unshakable connection between man and his best friend.

The Fallen Kingdom
I never thought my life would end up like this. One second, I'm just... me. The next, I'm running for my life, caught in a world I don't understand and hunted by people I can't even make sense of. Then there's Kane. Mysterious, stubborn, and somehow the only person I can count on. He drags me into a group of survivors - people from kingdoms that were destroyed, each with their own messed-up past. Somehow, we all ended up together, trying to survive in a world that's slowly breaking apart. Nothing is safe. Every shadow hides a threat, every step could be our last. And the more I learn, the more I realize that surviving isn't just about staying alive - it's about figuring out who I can trust, what I'm capable of, and what nightmares I'm willing to face. We were going to rebuild what we'd lost. ....

FROM THE WRITER OF "WHERE DA BOYS ARE" While heading to Canada to visit the Prime Minister, US President Ronald Morgan and his staff were attacked by an unidentified group of terrorists by shooting down the Air Force One, thus, the plane crashed and killing most of its passengers.

Exile: The Book of Ever
Centuries after the Fall, the United States has been wiped away. The crumbling remains of the great American empire are home now only to savage, lawless tribes and packs of ravening Damned-the twisted children of the apocalypse. Most of those few who survived humanity's destruction spend their short lives in a violent struggle for survival. But some light still flickers in the darkness: the Blessed of Bountiful live in seclusion, relying on walls both physical and spiritual to protect them from the Desolation that their world has become. Among them are the Saints, those few men and women born with superhuman abilities that the Blessed see as gifts from God. The violent apostate tribes of the Northeast Kingdom have always been a danger, but up until recently its small size and the vigilance of its people have made Bountiful an unappealing target. As attacks on the community grow harsher and more frequent, however, even the steadfast Blessed are forced to start preparing for the worst. With her home's very existence threatened, seventeen year old Ever Oaks, a Saint with the power to heal, is forced to make a difficult choice, one that may come to define her people's future... Exile was a semi-finalist in Mark Lawrence's Great Self-Published Fantasy Blog-Off (#SPFBO). Fantasy Faction said it was "extremely cool," and Bookish Lifestyle called it "more than just a story, a journey and an experience." When I'm asked about it, I often describe it as "X-Men meets The Walking Dead." In addition to reading it here for free, you can buy Exile in e-book or paperback on Amazon.com.Complete
