Hi! My name’s Lisa Bergren and I’m a writer of many things—children’s books, gift books, nonfiction, and fiction in many genres. And I’m talkin’ MANY. YA time travel, spiritual suspense, women’s fiction, dystopian…you get the gist. You can learn more about me and all my books here on my site and on Facebook. But I always adore an epic story. My newest release is the first book in my dystopian series, Remnants: Season of Wonder. It was previously released, but I’ve given it a fresh edit and a new cover! Here’s what it’s about:

Our Coming was foretold by the elders…

Andriana is a Remnant, one of the gifted born on the seventh day during the seventy-seventh Harvest after the Great War, and destined to act as humanity’s last shield against the horrors that now plague those who remain.

After years of training in stealth and warfare, Andriana and her Knight protector, Ronan, are finally ready to answer the Call and begin the life they were designed for. But as they embark with the other Remnants on the first of their assignments, they quickly discover that the world beyond the protected Valley is more dangerous than they imagined.

The Sons of Sheol will stop at nothing to prevent Dri and Ronan from rescuing anyone sympathetic to the Remnants’ cause. And as the Remnants battle the demonic forces, other enemies close in. Dangers intensify, but so do Dri’s feelings for Ronan — the one emotion she is not meant to feel. In the midst of their mission, Andriana must find a way to master her feelings. Or risk compromising everything.

 

MY POST-APOCALYPTIC BACKPACK

If I was living in post-apocalyptic times, there would definitely be some items I wished I had on my person. I mean, if you had no access to modern medicine or the Internet or all the things that keep us entertained, life would be far different, right? Here are ten things I’d want packed.

—A Bible (a dose of hope and light in a dismal world)—Broad-spectrum antibiotics—First Aid kit—Water purification tube—Emergency blanket—Book on herbal remedies—Hatchet—Knife—Solar lamp

—Hunting rifle

As a family, we have an “emergency cupboard,” stocked with basic supplies that would keep us afloat for a month or more, so I’ve been giving “survival” some serious thought for a while. Maybe it’s all because I’ve been writing/editing these dystopian novels! My intent with Remnants is to show that God is alive, well and moving, regardless of how the world makes it seem. In the end, it’s ultimately uplifting, but not without a lot of struggle in following where the Maker calls…and battling the enemy to do so.

Here are the Stop #1 Basics:

If you’re interested, you can order Seasons of Wonder on Amazon! (It’s great for teens 13 and up who like fast-paced reads and spiritual warfare themes.) It’s available in ebook, audio and paperback.
