Orion lives five centuries in the future, in a village called Holt on the Missouri river, in the middle of what used to be the United States of America. Life has drastically changed for the entire world after a series of solar superstorms destroyed the power grids, decreased the sun’s energy output, and plunged the Earth into an ice age. Three quarters of the Earth’s human population has been decimated, while many of those who survived have evolved into a race of people with superior genes. Orion belongs to one group of these evolved people called Tall Ones, possessing enhanced genes for strength, speed, and stamina, along with increased height. Sage, the girl he falls in love with, is a Brain, an evolutionary mutation that has greatly enhanced cerebral capacity. The Tall Ones and Brains have lived in unity, although rarely intermarrying, and have successfully used all the knowledge of science and history accumulated to date to make their simple, pastoral lifestyle comfortable and enjoyable. Yet, not all people have been so successful, and one such tribe, the Outliers, threatens to usurp Orion’s village and way of life from them.

SNIPPET

"He was still pondering this when Hyssop called for his daughter and Sage emerged from one of the back rooms. She approached him with a smile, which widened into a grin when she noticed his jaw drop open. This was not the same little girl Orion had known a few years ago. This was a beautiful young woman with the power to turn Orion’s world upside down. If he could’ve moved, he might have turned and bolted out the door.”


AUTHOR INTERVIEW ?'S


1.      Given unlimited resources, what would be your ideal writing environment? 
Anywhere quiet. Although, I’ve never actually had a chance to write where it’s quiet so I’m not at all sure it would work. My mind might need the outside stimulation so that it can tune it out and focus on the writing. Who knows?
2.      Where do you actually write?
At my desk in the kitchen amid all the household commotion of three homeschooled boys, numerous pets, cooking, laundry, etc. It’s a wonder any writing gets done at all. lol
