Book Description
John Thomas Rourke, M.D., ex-CIA covert operations Officer, weapons expert, and survival authority on the move again-searching for a cache of eighty megaton warhead missiles secreted on the New West Coast. It begins with a firefight between Brigands and a unit of U.S. II armed forces, a battle that ends with Rourke, and a seriously wounded Natalia, taking refuge on a submarine. The sight of the sunken remains of San Francisco is a grisly reminder of the Night of the War; the horde of half-dressed savages waiting on the shore, a deadly example of the madness of this brutal post-holocaust world. Surrounded now by murderous madmen and threatened by a mysterious officer who has been travelling with him, Rourke must call on all his training to escape and continue the search for his family. He must go on-he is THE SURVIVALIST.

Book Description
This book is unique in its critical inquiry into the new woman warrior's appropriation of violence and the Western war narrative. Informed by feminist theoretical debates regarding women's new roles, the authors delve into the meaning of that appropriation for alternative storytelling. To date, television's "ferocious few" have received little scholarly attention. By inviting a variety of perspectives, editors Frances Early and Kathleen Kennedy provide a cutting-edge forum to recognize women's increasing role in popular culture as they are cast as action heroes. As a timely and accessible work, this book will appeal to scholars, feminists, cultural critics, and the general reader.

Book Description
Savage Hills...where survival is incidental to the mission, and the mission just became ten thousand times harder. The Republic's kids were soft. Technology had made them weak. Pushbutton war was a great concept, and indeed had let them steamroll many a weaker nation. But the Regulators weren't made for this kind of war. The kind that required an iron will and a reservoir of endurance. Legions of troops would have been helpful too, but the Republic had been too decimated from years of empire-building to offer more than teens like Joe to the fight. And then the savages attacked with a fury never imagined. Joe could spit again and again and never rid himself of the stench of death. Nothing could take back what he'd seen. Too many friends and so many savages had lost their pathetic lives in some forsaken canyon behind enemy lines. Savage Hills, indeed.

Book Description
ONE CRAZY COW TOWN Clint Adams has passed through some wild cow towns in his life, but none more unusual than Chester, Utah. The welcome wagon consists of a dead body no one is willing to bury. On the most-wanted list is a retired miner who got off a lucky shot, and the sheriff is more interested in breaking the law than upholding it. At the center of it all is snake-oil salesman Henry Whiteoak. Seems the con man swindled some very valuable property away from some very dangerous people. Now, everyone wants a piece of the action—from the sheriff and his cronies and a gun-loving vixen to a gang of businessmen who bargain with lead. And it's up to the Gunsmith to teach them all why greed is one of the seven deadly sins...

Book Description
The history of the world has been changed by evil more often than by good. Evil does not always come straight at you; evil is a coward that insinuates itself around the truth, around courage and even around reality. That is why we call it evil. John Thomas Rourke and his family and friends have dealt with evil before. But this time, it is strangely different. Not long ago, Atlantis and UFOs and Aliens were legends. Now the legends are not only real but interlinked; inexorably and forever tied to each other. A history we never knew is now a reality we will never forget. One tinged by evil. This time courage alone nor hot lead alone nor cold steel alone can fix the problem. All of the threads of the recent past have now been pulled together, but to what end? Once again, the world is about to change and nothing can stop it. The question now is, can John Thomas Rourke guide his family toward their own survival and into yet another new world?
