Overview

An asteroid gets past our defenses and slams into Yellowstone National Park with dire consequences for all life on Earth! Retired volcanologist Marcus Hunter takes custody of his orphaned fourteen-year-old granddaughter, who was getting into trouble, hoping a sailing voyage on his ship the Windancer with his family would be good for her, but a mysterious message in a bottle sends them to Chile on an adventure to an ancient society inside the Tronador Volcano. A small iron asteroid gets past our defenses, slamming into Yellowstone National Park, causing an eruption similar to Mount Saint Helens, but the impact also puts pressure on the volcanoes around the Pacific Rim, which are showing signs of activity. If the pressure is not relieved, they will erupt, turning day into night, killing all life on the surface. With ash already spreading across the plains, clogging air filters on electrical generators and vehicles, causing people to go into survival mode, the president activates the Walnut scenario, where pre-selected people will move into an underground complex. At least, that's the plan for one family on the list, as they fight to survive the chaos and get to the facility before it's too late. Marcus learns the society under the volcano is just the caretakers of a massive underground complex, with a computer capable of answering any question a human could ask. It also controls their incredible power generation system, using heat exchangers submerged in molten magma. It gives Marcus an idea how to stop the eruptions, but he would be destroying the ancient society, with no guarantee it will work. Pirates, cannibalism, Betrayal, and earthquakes are part of this epic adventure, where the fate of all life on the surface depends on Marcus and the crew of the Windancer. A fantastic ride, with thrilling scenarios, exhilarating situations, and nail-biting suspense, by this bestselling and award-winning author.

Author Information

James M. Corkill is a Veteran and retired Federal Firefighter from Washington State, USA. He was an electronic technician and studied mechanical engineering before eventually becoming a firefighter and retiring. He began writing in 1997, and was fortunate to meet a famous horror writer named Hugh B. Cave, who became his mentor. In 2002, he self-published a dozen copies of Dead Energy, just so his wife could see his book before she was taken by cancer. When his soul mate was gone, he stopped writing and began drinking heavily until 2013, when he met a stranger who recognized his name and had enjoyed an old copy of Dead Energy. When the stranger encouraged him to start writing again, he realized this chance meeting was just what he needed to hear at the right moment, and he quit drinking and began the rewrite of Dead Energy into The Alex Cave Series. He is now an award-winning author. You can contact mister Corkill through his website: http: //jamescorkill.com/
