Earth Shift

by Timothy A. Pipes

Fifteen years have passed since a devastating global event wiped out most of humanity and civilization, leaving behind little technology that still works. It is 2046, but for thirteen year-old Ethan, it might as well be 1846 as he lives in New Haven; a small settlement in what used to be central California. Life is simple and the residents live off the precious crops and livestock they managed to hang onto. The seasons have largely returned to normal in the last five years and thankfully, life is no longer simply about survival. For Ethan however, the past is about to return and survival will be only one challenge among many, if those he loves are to survive.

About the author

I've been a reader for as long as I can remember, (comics books hooked me early) and made my way from kid's fare to young adult, to the vast world of (mostly) adult fiction. I'm a high school counselor, married to an amazing woman who happens to be teacher and we have two wonderful kids. Reading is my pleasure, writig is my joy and nothing quite centers me like telling a story. I know I"ll write for the rest of my life or until the muse leaves me. Hopefull that day will never come but I take each day at a time, always moving forward...

Very, very nicely done postapoc scifi. Some of the science went over my head, but no problem - the characters didn't. A few typos here and there but nothing to freak over. Good read and recommend to anyone who likes character driven post apocalyptic fiction rather than blood, guts, and Captain Survival.
