Mayan Calendar Prophecies| Part 1: Predictions for 2012 and Beyond
The Collective
” In 1898, Gustave LeBon published The Crowd, in which he examined the underlying forces behind the many horrors of the French revolution. More than 100 years later, its premises may be traced to the rise of Hitler, Mussolini, Pol Pot, Mao Tse-Tung, and countless American and European leaders. Here is presented an expansion and update of his work, in the hopes that the mistakes of the past are not repeated. Within is a step-by-step manual for the acquisition of political power, as well as the defense against those who would use the knowledge for their own purposes.”

Politics, Terrorism, and Intrigue/Conspiracy
Deadfall
Youth. “Ty finds he has stumbled across a plot to launch the worst terrorist attack the world has known, with thousands of lives at risk on the London Underground. Dismissed at every turn by the authorities, it soon becomes clear to Ty that only he and his gang, the Cyberhawks, can prevent the devastating attack planned by the group known as “Storm Troopers TZ9”. Stand by for Operation Deadfall...”
Nine Lives (Sam Archer 1)
“It’s New Year’s Eve. A major terrorist cell is planning a series of attacks across London over the next forty-eight hours. The government has surveillance on the group, a man undercover, and prepare to move in, to take out the terrorists before they can strike. But they lose contact with their inside man. And the cell vanishes into thin air, dispersing into the streets, armed and intent on completing their assault on London.”
IranDate - When Iran Went Nuclear And The World Went Ballistic
A Middle East nuclear thriller written from the Israeli perspective. From the blurb, look-inside, and reviews, this seems to be very well written.

Collapse, Post-Apocalypse, Speculative Futures
Flexon Vale: A Whimsical Tour of Modern America
`satirical story “Set in the year 2030… to the late 1990s. Runaway inflation, cars driven by computers, super-advanced water filtration systems, and a spy system that makes the NSA look like child’s play are among the features of America circa 2024. … The primary message is that although history doesn’t repeat exactly it typically rhymes. We need to learn from our mistakes or be doomed to repeat them. A secondary, but also important, element of the story is that of the "Black Swan," or unexpected, event. Life is filled with these catalysts, which often occur suddenly, and rapidly change the course of history for both people and nations alike. Disclaimers: FLEXON VALE is for mature readers. It contains sexual situations and strong language.“
Prepped: The Doomsday Playbook Part 1
What an amazing cover! :D
” Lenny Brewer lives a double life. In one instance he’s a womanizing narcissist that only lives for the moment. But in the other he’s a balls out survivalist hell bent on saving his own skin, no matter the cost. He lives a modest life, bedding women and collecting an assortment of survival gear. He doesn't have any family or friends, but his trusted German shepherd has been with him for years. When an event occurs that even the most skilled strategist couldn’t have predicted, his two lives are thrown at odds with one another. Now he's faced with the unthinkable and the scenario he's been prepping for, is staring him in the face. ---Prepped ‘It's only the end of the world, no need to be uncivilized.’"
Remnant
”A catastrophic event has occurred forcing the people underground. When supplies dwindle, those who emerge find a changed planet. One girl's quest is to survive, find out what remains, and why she is among them.”
Monarch: Chrysalis (Cocoon)
Not free in Canada and I don’t know where else.

Please see the others for more plot. I haven’t read them so don’t know just how this book fits in. Monarch: all four listed
