Egg-cerpt from Collapse


Author Bio:
Richard Stephenson is a fifteen year veteran of law enforcement, beginning with the United States Army as a Military Policeman and currently working in federal law enforcement. Richard's true passion is in writing. His novel, "Collapse," is the first book in a four part series entitled "New America"


What would it take for the United States to fall from within? In a not too distant future, America is put to the test. With the American people deep in The Second Great Depression and two of the most powerful hurricanes on record to contend with, the United States is in no condition to deal with hidden terrorists on its soil, maniacal politicians, and the most formidable military threat the world has seen since the Third Reich.  
 
This is the story of three men from three very different walks of life: Howard Beck, the world's richest man, also diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome; Richard Dupree, ex-Navy SEAL turned escaped convict; and Maxwell Harris, a crippled, burned-out chief of police of a small Texas town. At first, they must overcome their own struggles and fight for their survival against impossible odds. In the end, the unlikely trio must band together to save their beloved country from COLLAPSE. 
 
Empires topple. Nations crumble. Civilization is fragile. In 2027, America will fall.


Review Highlights:
"Sweeping, character driven apocalypse."  "Stephenson starts with a bang and doesn't lose momentum."  Steven Konkoly, best selling author of "The Jakarta Pandemic" and the "Black Flagged" series.
"Outstanding futuristic thriller." "Mr. Stephenson grabs you - literally pulls you - directly into the novel and gets your pulse racing right into the heads of his character."  Michael Gallagher, Amazon Hall of Fame Reviewer and his "Kindle Books and Tips" blog has been the #1 bestselling paid subscription blog in the Amazon Kindle Store since 2010.
"Collapse is a real page-turner. Stephenson does a masterful job of building a suspenseful ending to each chapter and then shifting to another character's story; this makes it difficult to put down this book."  Blaise Ciabaton, Editor of TwistedSciFi.com.




Thanks Stephen for stopping by,
