Before the destruction of Farm-Colony 984, Lawrence and Maria were
security guards, lovers, inseparable companions. Maria was
positioned in the Main Building during the attack. Lawrence watched
the building explode. He watched from a distance and there was
nothing he could do. In, Just After the Fall, Lawrence is thrown
into a hostile wilderness pursued by Armored Drone Soldiers,
befriended by the savages he was trained to kill, and haunted with
doubt as to whether Maria was really there when the farm went up in
flames. Just After the Fall is a story of betrayal and redemption.
It is a story of love and searching for those left behind. Just
After the Fall is a novel that exists within the same world as the
novels: But the Angels Never Came, Farmers and Cannibals, Whom Cain
Slew, and Short Stories from the Year 2065 and the Decades that
Followed. The books and stories are written to be read in no
particular order. Each story reveals more about the characters
during different times in their lives. The roles of the characters
are different in each narrative. The protagonist in one may be a
minor character in another. Just After the Fall features the
characters Lawrence and Maria.
Before the world ended Abraham was a young successful lawyer with a
wife and child. He was no different than anyone else. That all
changed suddenly when the old nation was taken over by a hostile
foreign power, and Abraham was forced to make the most important
choice of his life. Stay and be subject to the arbitrary whims of
the invaders, or abandon his home for the unlikely prospect of
freedom. But the Angles Never Came takes place within the same
world as Farmers and Cannibals, Just After the Fall, and Short
Stories from the Year 2065 and the Decades that Followed
Enter the world of Farmers and Cannibals where limited resources,
worldwide conflict, and great leaps in weapons technology have cut
a deep fissure between those who have taken power, and those that
struggle to survive on the margins of civilization. The deadly
struggle continues as the dispossessed gather together, as the men
and women robbed of their livelihood recognize the inherent power
of their numbers. Join Francisco Cain, Director for Security on
Farm-Colony 984, as he finds himself in the center of the conflict.
Bear witness as this tool for control, as this mechanism for power
begins to recognize the hand that subtly controls his every action.
Shannon Olson continues to make his readers laugh and gasp with his
new stories. This book will take you on some outdoor adventures but
also introduces the law enforcement side of Shannon. You will hear
some nasty talk from turkeys, a tale of electrical karma, a little
graveyard fun and how ladybugs helped create the fly fishing dream
of I've Got Bugs. Sit back and enjoy the ramblings of a man that
has many dreams, one of which is to make his readers laugh and
reminisce in their own childhood.
Shannon Olson is fascinated with the outdoors and has a passion for
exploring God's country. His stories can touch your heart, make you
gasp and definitely wet your pants. He divulges about his supper
eyeballing him, parking his four-wheeler in a tree, pays respect to
his old bird dog and even makes breaking bones a comical event. He
has a unique way of ending up in near disaster situations and
somehow always gets up laughing.
