American Rebirth: A Post-Apocalyptic Novel
Kuhusu kitabu pepe hiki
Some things you just can't escape, doesn't matter how far you run.
King Daryn has turned the Sons of Liberty into a war machine. Texas is flooded with exiles and refugees. The Church of The Redemption has come to power, changing the geopolitical landscape.
Everything the Clearwater crew knew is gone. They've had to start a new life, hidden away from it all. Stealing what they can to survive. But there's no safety in solitude. They know that better than anyone.
Everything they know is about to change, when they stumble upon enough silver and weaponry to buy a small army. There's just one problem--the people who it belonged to are about to come looking for it.
And a new war simmering in the dark is about to tear the country apart. No matter how far they push it away, they can't escape the destiny pulling them in like a gravity well.
After all, history will not be denied its legends.

Like so many of you, I am a man obsessed with stories.
From the earliest parts of my youth that I can remember, I yearned for imaginary worlds. I created stories and lived them out in my backyard, I found myself engrossed in fantasy novels, mystery novels, roleplaying games, television shows, history, and anything else I could get my hands on.
When I was eighteen, and I first attempted creative writing, I knew it was something I was born for, as dramatic as that sounds. It just felt right. I started writing my first novel that year, and it's still howling under the bed, so to speak, in dire need of revision.
My first real success stemming from my writing ability began when I placed 7th in the 76th annual Writer's Digest Competition for my short story entitled Serenaded. Since then, I've published more than 50 articles as a freelance writer, and I released HOOD as my debut novel of the American Rebirth Series in January 2016. The success it has had since then is something of a dream.
As for the rest of my life, I've been a professional poker player for many years. I've backpacked Europe, I've biked alone across the northeastern US by myself when I was eighteen. I grew up living on a boat half the year every year. I've hung out in grimy side streets and in sprawling mansions and empty parking lots. I've read a lot of books, played a lot of video games, I've grown up and I've stayed young and I'm still searching for something. I think we all are.
