In the ashes of World War IV, planet earth is unrecognizable. Book 2 of the Time Altar Series, The Fall, finds Twenty-Fifth Century United America, a juggernaut, in the pockets of an iron fist fascist regime. The only counterweight, Mutare Science and Technology Global (MST), is much more than it appears. Dr. Benjamin Murray escapes to MST with the time-traveler Lt. Col. Jake Gillean and a proxy war erupts between the two global heavyweights. As humanity wails under the weight of fascism, Jake demonstrates his skills as a high-tech warrior. But can one soldier alone make a difference? This science fiction high-tech warfare thriller finds humanity on the brink of subjugation. In a dim future, with global powers asserting themselves on every level of human existence, the Artificial Intelligence that we have trusted to cultivate Mars may have been left to themselves for too long
