Michael Bakerson had come from a tough background. He had only ever tasted meat once. His village was poor and struggled to survive. There was one thing that gave him hope: the military. When he is given a chance to join the Army, he grasps it with both hands. However, his dream quickly fades into something far more sinister, as the sides become less clear cut than ever.
Set in an alternate future where the nuclear bomb was never created and there was nothing to stop the USA and USSR in plunging into a deadly war, this novel follows the story of a team that have no choice but to take on the establishment - and pay the price.

In the year 2037, amidst a world engulfed in the flames of a devastating global conflict known as World War III, two inseparable friends, Elijah and Michael, find themselves thrust into the heart of chaos. Elijah, a resourceful engineer with a knack for survival, and Michael, a charismatic strategist skilled in diplomacy, navigate the brutal realities of war as they fight to protect everything they hold dear. As the conflict escalates, their bond is tested by the harsh demands of wartime loyalty and the moral complexities of their choices. From urban battlegrounds to clandestine operations behind enemy lines, they must evade capture, navigate shifting allegiances, and confront the true cost of their actions. Along the way, they encounter a diverse cast of characters - allies and adversaries alike - each with their own motives and stories shaped by the tumultuous landscape of a world at war. As Elijah and Michael struggle to navigate this dystopian future, their journey becomes a testament to the resilience of the human spirit in the face of unfathomable adversity. Can their friendship endure the crucible of global conflict? Can they find hope amid the ruins and forge a path to survival against all odds? Or will they face the same fate as other victims who weren't so fortunate. Just a warning, This story is fake. All of the characters mentioned are not real people. The situation is fictional. This is more than a tale of survival; it's a gripping narrative that explores themes of loyalty, sacrifice, and the indomitable will to persevere, even when the world hangs in the balance.

The Hazards of My Chosen Profession (on hiatus)
Michael also known as "Wolf" (because of a patch he wears on his kit and helmet) is a member of what was the 75th Ranger Regiment. He finds himself a veteran of a war between humanity and anthros. While he doesn't exactly hate them he doesn't exactly trust them either despite their efforts to rebuild the relationship between species. Unfortunately a good chunk of humanity and anthro kind was wiped out due to the war. But due to the anthros ability to reproduce faster they were able to recover much faster leaving humanity at a loss. Michael finds himself alone and on the run from a one of the most dangerous anthro militaries (at least to humans), known as the Obsidian Front. They continue to hunt down and kill humans forces despite the end to the war, causing proxy wars and often large scale skirmishes between them and remaining human militias.
