"There are lots of incredibly powerful people in Folia. Not all of them are heroes, but that doesn't automatically make the others villains."
~~~~~~
Folia: The only remaining nation on the planet. Surrounded by protective walls, a utopia-like government and most importantly, the Guardians -- people with extraordinary gifts and abilities who dedicate their life to Folia and her citizens.
But all good things come to an end, and Folia's prosperity crumbles as terrorist attacks from a group of rebels start destroying their home.
With no choice and stakes growing higher, the Agencies that run Folia form their first group of Guardians. They call this team Aegis -- the best of the best who will protect Folia from threats too large for normal Guardians to handle. The only problem is that they need members.
Miara, a young superhuman who dreams of becoming a Guardian, is presented with a great opportunity that will change her life forever.
Join her on an adventure unlike any other in the creation of Folia's first superhero group.

After a virus devastates the population, the U.S. government uses the crisis to seize control, turning teenagers into test subjects in brutal experiments meant to create super-soldiers. Those who are captured vanish into labs where their memories are wiped, their bodies are altered, and their identities are erased.

Outside the walls, Z is haunted by her absence. He can't eat, sleep, or breathe without seeing her face. As he and a fractured group of survivors drive through a collapsing America-riddled with graffiti, riots, and people fighting to the death over scraps-Z promises he'll find Artemis, even if he has to tear the system down piece by piece.

The Debt Collectors War
Ellie is a soldier in a world without governments. A generation ago, a series of financial crises caused most of the world’s governments to collapse, and left many of the people in those countries in terrible personal debt. Since then, the worst debtor nations have been under military occupation by the troops of the debt recovery corporations, and the worst debtor of all is Měi-guó, the old United States. Ellie is serving in the Afghan Police Action when she receives bad news from home. She is told the daughter she hasn’t seen in years is dead. She flies home from war, upset, to do what needs to be done, but once there she finds out all is not as it seems. Ellie’s daughter is alive and unhurt. She is being held by of one of the many debt-recovery corporations. Held, for leverage, to make Ellie do the corporation a favour. Ellie’s daughter will be returned unharmed if Ellie does as they wish. The son of a company director is lost somewhere in the wilderness of post-debt-restructuring America, and hasn't been seen for three days. The company wants Ellie to go and find the kid, and Ellie doesn't know if she can. The one rule she's stuck to all her working life is to never to go to America, but now she might have to. She will have to, if she wants to save the daughter she hasn't seen in years. This is fairly dark and gritty near-future dystopian SF. ----- Debt Collectors War is now on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00QZG1RHI/ Also on iTunes and B&N and other places.
