FICTION
Nature Survival, War, and other Hardship
Bedside Manner
“Nicklaus Fleischer dreamed of growing up to be a doctor. Few dreams, however, can remain pure under the shadow of the Third Reich. On his journey to become a doctor and soothe his troubled home life, Nicklaus discovers the terrible steps his nation has taken to fight a war not just on the front lines, but against its very own citizens. The government changes the value of 'Do No Harm', and with it, Nicklaus's dreams to better the lives of his fellow man. This is a fictional biography set during a grim time - a tale of life, death, love, and loss that is not for the faint of heart.”

DARKOUT
“In the year 2033 it blinked. Just like a light bulb going out. And eventually the sun did go out. Thirty years after the fact a small knot of survivors set out to widen thier very narrow, need we say very cold, horizons. The stated goal is knowledge, communication, and trade. No matter how small your "world" gets there is always somebody with a hidden agenda. And, it would seem, a few ‘critters’ you didn't expect to run into.”
Sci-Fi Country
This collection of 5 science fiction short stories includes “The Four – A deadly plague infests the world and a small group of scientist and government agents must figure out what happened and how. They travel through Europe only to find chaos and eventually the real story.”
A NEW ICE AGE
Author is an engineer and long-time writer. “A scientist discovers what appears to be a climate cooling trend. This is contrary to the overwhelming evidence that the climate has been warming for some time, and that human activities, such as the emission of greenhouse gases from the burning of fossil fuels, are a major cause of such warming. At first, the cooling trend is dismissed as a temporary blip without any long term effect on the previously established warming trend. But as the evidence of a colder climate keeps accumulating, more aggressive scientific investigations are launched. ...The outcome of this debate will determine whether human beings can master nature or be defeated while trying.”
Pena Spring (The Journey Trilogy)
1st of trilogy. The second is here: Discovery - Angel Woods (The Journey Trilogy)
and the third doesn’t seem to be out yet.
“With economic doom on the horizon, middle-aged and widowed, Cheryl Harrington, sells her worldly possessions, buys a specially outfitted and modified RV and moves to the Anza-Borrego Desert located east of San Diego, California. Surrounded by picturesque desert, and with a pristine oasis within easy proximity, Cheryl sets up an existence free of the escalating turmoil, an apocalypse, with worldwide consequences… In Atlanta, Dr. Sarah Jones, renowned epidemiologist with the Center for Disease Control, has been delivered the first sample of a virus which has decimated the far reaches of inland China. Within a few short weeks, this virus will circle the globe, killing nearly everyone in its path. Billions will lie dead. ...Jed Rose, ex-Navy Seal and father of Natalie, uses his formidable military skill to keep himself and his daughter alive. Fleeing the city for the desert, they join a group of SuperFlu survivors, but find no sanctuary with those bent on robbing and killing others to maintain their existence. Jed and his daughter flee into the depth of the desert where each day is fraught with a struggle between life and death and where Jed continuously searches for the most precious of resources, water. ....Lydia and Allen Maxwell lived comfortably in the marina district in San Francisco, California, until the SuperFlu descended on the city wiping out its inhabitants within four short days. Being one of the few survivors, Lydia Maxwell, alone, travels to the only place she might find shelter, to her mother, Cheryl Harrington. Their struggle to survive is the first story.”
Orphan Flu
“When all of the adults start dying around the world from a unique strain of influenza, Sara’s family is prepared. Her Dad is a survivalist computer geek who built a bunker of a house in the Philadelphia suburbs completely off grid. He taught his kids to hunt and gave them lessons on how to survive in the wilderness. With society collapsing under the strain of so much death, violence starts erupting around the country. All of their training isn’t enough to keep them safe as strangers swarm the property and they find themselves under attack.” For more plot see link.

“Modern-day Luddites had their reasons for manipulating powerful solar storms in the year 2013. They expected repercussions but not of such enormity like losing more than 1/2 the world's population. Its 2020, seven years after the solar storms. The Luddites have turned their focus on human evolution.”
After 2012
“Rated "G" for ages 8 to 80 Global war tears away everything Diane and her two daughters had worked so hard to gain and leaves them with a single goal; to survive in the aftermath of a nuclear holocaust! Hiding from murderous gangs preying on the weak, they scavenge for food and water only to realize their beloved home has become a horrific place of starvation filled with constant threats to life and limb. That which remains, a place more hideous than their worst nightmare, makes them realize they must escape; ... Food is scarce..., water even scarcer. Everything is poisoned with radiation and the reality of life has changed. ... Can they now survive what awaits?”

SIGNIFICANT REDUCTIONS
Surviving Off Off-Grid
“Western Society is in confusion, the industrial world is teetering on collapse, and it looks like things could get worse. Agrarian Blogger, historian, and "plain" preacher Michael Bunker has been living off of the grid for many years, and he has some advice for those living in the industrial/consumerist economy …living an off off-grid life is achievable. It has been done for thousands of years, and it can be done today... It is quite possible that many people who have relied on a failing system for their means of survival will very soon find that they have made a mistake of historic proportions. Historic, because every major "classical" culture went down the same road our society is on today. This book is about the lessons we should have learned, and what you can do to survive what history tells us must come next.”

Dykes and barricades have been constructed around huge cities to hold back the rising seas. Australian oceanographer Nick Torrens working for the US government finds a massive new fault line in Pacific Ocean. These tectonic plates are about to subduct causing a global chain reaction of undersea earthquakes. (much more plot, including Australia, global media,etcA) …The US Government flee to a secret city in the mountains, ships are lost at sea and planes in the air are diverted to inland airports.

“America is in turmoil. The states are no longer united, and the path of their division may be leading us all to annihilation. When young Derek joined the Marine Corps his intentions were simply to provide himself with a better life.

Americans are beginning to wonder if our differences will be the end of our great nation, or if we will find a way to unite our people and reclaim our freedom.”

As he attempts to unlock the secrets of this waiting apocalypse, Professor Beauregard is hunted by an archaic fundamentalist cult determined to bring about humanity’s end-of-days. Will he find the key to stopping the world’s oldest weapon of mass destruction, or will the Cult’s wish to purge all evil be the Earth’s demise?"
