Fortress Farm Trilogy: Volumes 1, 2 & 3
G.R. Carter - 2015
Chilling in concept, the series remains hopeful as people work together to survive a worldwide catastrophe. This box set contains: * The Case for Continuity (Brand new prologue) * The Pullback - Book 1 (New scenes surrounding the timeline of the Reset) * Shield of the Okaw - Book 2 (New chapters with added character background) * Red Hawk Rising - Book 3 * A key to important terms, characters and maps in the world of Fortress Farm. Includes pictures. Also includes three never before published short stories complete with background information on related characters: * History of the North American Caliphate * Jenkins Family Dilemma * Fruit of the Valley: Quest for the Phoenix The motivation for the Fortress Farm series was simple; all across America there’s one thing people can agree on…something just isn’t right. A gut reaction is warning us that we as a people are in grave danger. Special interests tear at each other and divide us. Mounting debt becomes more unsustainable with each fiscal cycle. Most important, for the first time in human history, we don’t know how to feed ourselves. Society teeters just nine meals from chaos. We are at the mercy of intricate supply chains for the most basic of needs. If tomorrow that supply chain stopped, and the grocery store was empty, what would we do to care for our families? In the setting of the Fortress Farm series, the world’s electrical and communications grid fails. People are left people without food, water or heat. Leaders seize remaining resources for their own benefit, forsaking those they claimed to serve. Bandits roam the countryside preying on the weak. Humans once more fear what lurks in the night. Fortress Farm charts the progress of different societies as they reform in the void. Some try to create libertarian republics, others benevolent dictatorships, caliphates and military rule. Some Churches join forces and once again help lost souls find hope, while other religions take the opportunity to prove God's judgement is upon them. Each situation presents unique challenges and this new dark age survivors to the point of collapse. But all is not lost. This is not just a story detailing the implosion of a fragile society, but a blueprint for how we might prepare before catastrophe strikes and how we rebuild afterwards. More important than governmental theories, Fortress Farm follows common people doing the best they can to defend and care for their families in a chaotic world, each trying to build a better life for their loved ones.
