Fall of the Cities: Country Living and Dying

About Fall of the Cities: Country Living and Dying

It’s taken four years, but Harold has finally got Sharyn and the kids out of the city. Not quite on his own, it takes a Special heavy metal fireworks party, and then it’s time to run silent for the hills. The escapees burrow deep, where even a drone won’t find them, and once they’re clear, Mercedes finally bares her soul. She just hopes her ‘Arold can handle it.

Behind, they leave a city where more and more are realising the end-game, annihilation. Their fate is clear as soldiers are taken away to assault the largest of the enclosures, London. Preparations are made, and both the London Committee and the Last Prophet have extreme methods of recruitment. A few, like Conan, don’t care about the bigger picture, but even he finds that his world is changing.

Harold and his merry crew have found peace, except for Liz’s demands because she wants to build an armoury for Armageddon. As time passes the refugees begin to relax, hoping to believe this really might work, but even Paradise, and the Hope Valley, hide a festering sore. Harold and Mercedes uncover a crime so terrible they simply daren’t show the rest, not yet.

When spring arrives, it isn’t with daffodils and Easter eggs. The Cabal finally launch their European mercenaries against the Gatwick salient. Mines, suicide bombers, and rockets meet armour and professional soldiers, and there can only be one result. The Londoners trade bodies and ground, use every weapon and maniac they can, in a bitter, deadly war of attrition.
In the Hope Valley, spring brings the death of all their hopes. Faster than even the most pessimistic feared, their world crumbles and the Specials move in with overwhelming numbers, armour, and air power. The Riot Squad dig in and prepare to die because these are the ones who swore they’d never be taken again. It would take an angel wielding hellfire to save Harold’s crew this time, but even if he found one, there’s still the traitor waiting to plant a knife in his back. This time, there really is no way out.

The orphaned only-child of only-child parents, Josie Malone works at the Department of Licensing, pets her cat, and eats frozen dinners most nights, never suspecting danger had been stalking her for years.

And Vic is kicking herself for bringing the two together. How did everything spiral out of control?

Nanoverse (Books 1-4): A Cyberpunk Technothriller

About Nanoverse (Books 1-4): A Cyberpunk Technothriller

You have been marked by the algorithm as a threat to national security.

You are under arrest.

Your peripheral nervous system is now under the jurisdiction of the United States Bureau of Prisons.

You have been charged with attempted terrorism and found guilty.

The judgment of the algorithm is final.

INCLUDED:
Algorithm (Book 1):

Nanovax was supposed to be our salvation.
Death and disease, now obsolete.
Until the terrorist attack. Fifteen cities in a single day.
Again, they said Nanovax was the answer.
The same technology meant to heal us could now be used, through an algorithm, to track us, to predict human behaviors…
To thwart future terrorists.
I’m Lieutenant Brian Goff. I received the first injection.
It healed my wounds in the war. I became the face of Nanovax…
Then, the algorithm identified me as a threat… a terrorist…
Now, I’m on the run and fighting against the very technology that once saved my life… and if that wasn’t frightening enough…
The government has my daughter.

Nanoswarm (Book 2):

The nanonetwork has been upgraded.
I can still access the nanobots…
But when I do, it leaves the host unconscious. Transferring their mind into the nanoswarm.
Dr. Archimedes Flat is expanding his nanoverse. Collecting minds to craft a new “utopia” forged from collective memory.
He believes it’s the next step in human evolution.
And if a few people have to die to make it happen, well, in his mind that’s nothing more than the survival of the fittest.
If I’m going to stop him, I’ll have to fight him in the nanoverse itself.
But Flat designed the nanoverse. He’s it’s architect. The god of his digital world.
How can I possibly defeat the maker of the nanoverse from within his own creation? After all, in the nanoverse, Flat makes all the rules.

Posthuman (Book 3):

I’m losing myself in the nanoverse…
Am I even human anymore?
So many connections… so many people…
But where am I?
The resistance has been attacked.
How can I even fight back if I can’t find myself?
I’ll have to enter the nanonetwork myself…
If I can’t set up a firewall to protect my identity…
I’ll be lost forever.

Nanowar (Book 4):

The enemy has learned how to replicate in the nanoverse.
His plan remains the same.
To usher in the next chapter of human evolution. To convert all of humanity into a digital species, inhabiting a digital world.
The government has fallen.
The resistance is in turmoil.
If I’m going to save humanity I have no choice but to destroy the nanoverse.
But can I do that without also destroying myself?

Go up and click ‘Read for Free’ or ‘Buy Now’ to find out if Brian Goff can overcome the threat that is the nanoverse!
