Raven's Record Series

Smoke and ashes cover most of the North American continent. While emergency responders race against the clock to rescue survivors, government officials scramble to obscure details of the event that claimed the lives of millions. Was the calamity a volcanic super eruption? Or an unprecedented weapon unleashed by an enemy with a vendetta against the United States? After losing everything, one survivor hurdles red tape and false flags in an attempt to uncover--and broadcast--the real story.

What sort of scar would smear across the face of history if the United States ceased to exist? Second in a thought-provoking science-fiction series, this installment takes place after a cataclysmic destruction of much of North America. Seeking to rise from the ashes, citizens of the Earth utilize new technology to send 21st century pioneers across the universe to settle the planet Equinox in the Proxima Centauri system.

Like the ancient Polynesian explorers, migrants aboard the mothership Kon-Tiki endeavor to travel great distances using celestial navigation. A sudden cataclysm renders continental United States into a forbidden zone known as The Big Scorch. Believing the danger to be past, the remaining officials attempt to pick up the pieces and conduct the country's business as usual. General Leonard Bardick discovers that instead of one nation, this time an enemy intends to wipe out the entire planet.
