He only wanted to build a plaything - a small, simple device born
of innate curiosity and a fascination of things mechanical.
Scavenging parts and repurposing components, a country gunsmith
assembles what is supposed to be a conversation piece - a trinket
to show his friends... a toy really... a small rail gun. The
invention is so much more. After nearly destroying his West Texas
shop, Dusty realizes he has stumbled upon science that could alter
the future of mankind. The size and shape of a common rifle, his
device is capable of producing unimaginable energy. The simple,
gentleman rancher is faced with a dilemma of the ages, the survival
of the human race. The resulting technology can produce limitless,
clean energy, or if used as a weapon, inconceivable destruction.
Nothing so monumental stays secret for long. Powerful men and
desperate governments learn of the discovery, and it quickly
becomes evident that whoever wields the rail gun can dominate the
entire planet. Book One of a new series, The Olympus Device by
author Joe Nobody takes the reader through a fast paced adventure
that explores the dichotomy of corruptive power versus ultimate
benefit.
Passed down through four generations, these are the bedtime stories
of Pancake and his friends. With over 20 full-color illustrations,
parents will appreciate the time-honored values gently expressed in
these tales. Children will love the little otter while at the same
time absorbing fundamental lessons such as preparing for a rainy
day and the joy of helping others.
Book two of Joe Nobody's popular series continues the story of
Dusty and his friends. Powerful men want to possess the rail gun,
and are willing to sacrifice almost anything to hold the doomsday
weapon in their hands.
For years, the Departments of Defense and Homeland Security issued
warnings - the United States was vulnerable to a cyber-attack. It
was 2017 when the attack was finally launched, coming from a
direction that no one had predicted, with consequences beyond
imagination. Wyatt and his family were already on the down and out.
Years fighting through a struggling economy, tight credit, and
government regulations had already taken their toll. When society
collapses, they have one chance left - a lifeboat awash in a sea of
anarchy. There is a place of safety, a deserted island nicknamed
Crusoe - but it won't be easy. The journey requires passage through
a landscape decimated by riots, ravaged by desperate looters, and
plagued by ruthless pirates. Apocalypse Drift is the adventure of
an everyday American family as they fight for survival in a world
gone mad.
