Book 2 in the Burning Series: the sequel to Dust.
The world is changing.
There used to be men, and there used to be monsters.
The line between the two is blurred now.
Long ago, the earth spun in a constant cycle. There was life. There was hope. It is no longer such.
Humanity cowers beneath glass domes in the midst of the desert, afraid of radiation that no longer pollutes the air. But there are darker things hiding in the wilderness now. Wild things. Cursed things. Burning things.
Yet, not all is lost.
Ashes, ashes. We all fall down sometimes. But what happens when you can't stand again?

Note from Author, "If anyone is reading Fallout FanFiction. This is my own original tale of what happened to the Dwelers of the Augmented Bone Armour, 1 billion years ago" A group of people was able to escape from the planet Mars after receiving news from high-level scientists that the surface world would be destroyed by a Galactic lightning bolt in two months. The middle social groups on Mars built survival shelters to prepare for the disaster, only the shelters contained thousands of years of. resources..as the planet had been aware of the impending catastrophe for over two centuries but failed to warn its inhabitants. Some believe that the changing weather and the fracturing of their civilization were due to the population explosion caused by CO2 breathers, who do not breathe oxygen but instead breathe CO2. The middle social group secured the backing of billions of donors, allowing them to build their shelters and survive. However, only ten people managed to survive in the end. This is their story of how they managed to travel from Mars, 3.1 billion years ago, to Earth. By samuel Hasley Hunwick, co-authors Noah, James, Shelby, Matt, Sunny, Kurt, John, Pat, and Sam.

Inevitable Ascension
***Completed*** If you knew your world would soon be torched to carbon, would you fight to save it? ...Or light a match of your own? Violina, a girl polarized by love and loathing, finds herself thrown into a post-apocalyptic world with mankind on the brink of extinction. Discovering the means to travel back in time, she teams up with the ever-optimistic, pun-loving Lux and sets out to prevent the apocalypse from ever happening in the first place. But as her crusade advances, she becomes increasingly disturbed by humanity's apparent *lack* of humanity and comes to a frightening realization: To build a new world, she must first tear the old one down. Inevitable Ascension-The twisted jigsaw puzzle of a story with equal parts rapid-fire action, humor and charm. It's got a host of twists that will literally make your brain explode! Actually not literally, you know, because otherwise that would be really gross. Who is V.K. McAllister? We're a husband/wife duo (Andrew and Sasha McAllister) with a unique approach to writing. We work simultaneously and in secret before combining what we come up with, resulting in dramatic and unexpected twists that surprise even us! Crazy? Yes, yes it is, but it's surprisingly fun and effective. :) We pretty much live for the Inevitable Ascension series and did just about everything ourselves-the writing, the editing, the publishing, the art (well, Andrew did the art, but Sasha provided invaluable consulting when it came to eyebrows), the audio book, the trailer-everything. We're basically a one-man band, except with two people... and no music... so perhaps not the best metaphor, but we're confident you get what we mean. Check out the trailer and art at www.inevitableascension.com :)Concluída
Ashes Of Tomorrow
ASHES OF TOMORROW When humanity burned, knowledge became the only fire left. Two centuries after the world collapsed, humans no longer believe in science-and science no longer believes in humans. The Decay Virus has transformed the Earth into a living organism: cities grow like flesh, metal breathes, and the sky reflects the pulse of out-of-control biotechnology. Among the ruins, Ryn Solas, a scientist awakened from a frozen sleep two hundred years ago, awakens to find a world born of his own mistakes. He once created a virus designed to save humanity-and instead erased it from history. Now, he must confront two opposing forces: Kael Drayke, the stubborn leader of the Survivors who thrives on instinct and hatred of the past, and Eira, a Hybrid creature who is neither human nor monster-the only one who might understand the true meaning of evolution. The three are trapped between the ruins of science and faith, logic and instinct, past and future-as the world begins to speak with a voice that belongs to no one else: the voice of an ancient machine that believes destruction is a form of salvation. At the end of everything, they must answer the same question: Does humanity still deserve to survive... or is it time to be replaced by something more worthy?
Rogue. (IN REVISION)
Long ago, way before our time. A weary traveler left home to find new land for his family to thrive off of. Drought engulfed almost all of Elysium, called The Great Heat. The man traveled far and wide just to find a sign of life anywhere. It took him days and several hundred miles to find anything worth nourishment and care. He braved sand storms and blistering heat, his throat was dry and his feet could hardly carry him any farther. He collapsed onto the ground, his hands burning under the heat of the crackled ground. His vision blurred and mirages played with his suffering senses. His mind projected a tree into his line of vision, withering away but it's branches holding a single fruit. Besides his beliefs of it being a figment of his imagination, he crawled his way to it, bringing himself under the weak shade that it provided. He looked at the glistening purple fruit, what was it? He reached up to grab it, expecting it to fall through the image projected before him. His fingers wrapped around the fruit and he picked it from the branch. It was real! The fruit was real. He eagerly bit into the fruit and its juices trickled down his chin. He sat back and relaxed as the food nourished his body, he drank of its juices and picked out its many seeds, collecting them. He dug a deep hole until he felt moisture in the soil, planting the seeds into the ground. As it grew over time, the man used the old tree to build his home around the new one, tending to it religiously until it beared fruit. He brought his family and they lived there, planting trees and passing on the seeds for other places to spring life. Within five years the drought was over, Elysium was breathing again."Concluída
O2
The Earth is dying, yet humanity survives. Pollution and radiation run rampant on the surface. The government rations food and clean air for everyone. The glass domes provide some sense of security, but they are only for the rich who can afford the astronomical price of providing precious clean air to a whole city. Nym and her family live outside the dome when the disease breaks out. Spreading through the Minor City Shelter and then to Shelter's around other cities, nothing seems capable of stopping it. People are going mad and dying off like flies. There's no cure they can find. They only know one thing. Their last precious resource is going to be the death of them.

[COMPLETED] •Being revised... AGAIN (Progress: Intro-Chap. 3)• "We're going back... Understand? There are more threats out here than we anticipated, and they're all after you-" Lukas' voice erupted into static and chunks... I glared at the man in all black as the light continued to beam and blind me. Without my glasses it was actually painful. And then there was silence.
