It’s the end of the world, but a new beginning for humanity. The war has lasted for generations. In this technological age, no longer must humans risk their lives in combat. Fierce robots operated by remote control make up the bulk of the militaries. Satellites in the atmosphere render the heavens a frenzy of violent confrontation. However, the war has little effect on everyday life. The bloodshed is minimal, the disruption to commerce even less. It is a comfortable war. Most of the populace believe they have nothing to fear. Little they know their world is about to come to an end.

Guest Post: Pet Duck
Hello
everyone, and thank you for reading my guest post. My name is Mike Phillips and
my new book is Dawn of Ages. I was asked to share a little something
about my personal life. I know lots of you have pets, so I thought I’d talk
about that. I grew up on a farm in West Michigan. We grew most of our own food
and heated our house with wood, and even made our own furniture. For me, the
best part of growing up on a farm was the animals. In addition to the
livestock, we always had a dog and an abundance of barn cats. My absolute
favorite, however, was my pet duck, Peeper. The poor thing didn’t get off to a
good start. I remember that the mother and father duck had a nest of eggs, and we
knew that it was about time for them to hatch. I had gone into the barn just
before bed and been rewarded with the sound of little duck voices. Well, I
didn’t want to disturb their momma, so I let them be and came back excited the
next morning. What I found was a tragedy. A weasel had come in the night.
Mother and father duck and about three ducklings lay dead on the ground. The
dog caught up with weasel. It too met an unfortunate end. I was sick and in
tears as I looked at it all, but heard a little voice behind me. A single
duckling was left. I took it inside and raised it under a light bulb. All the
while, I “peeped” at her so she would feel at home. That was a mistake, because
even as an adult, Peeper never quite learned to quack just right. Thank you for joining me for this guest post.
I hope you check out Dawn of Ages or
my other books, Reign of the Nightmare
Prince and The World Below.
