The Last Wars, Volume 1

The Chinese announce they are going to Mars. In 2 years time. This absolutely stuns the United States and Russia and kicks them out of the crawling pace of their space programs, challenging them to recall that once, many years before, they were the leaders in space exploration. The U.S. and E.U. launch a crash program to make it to Mars first. So does Russia. A new Space Race has begun.

After the first nation sets down on Mars and begins explorations, Earth is struck by a disaster heretofore unknown and unexpected though some had predicted it for years. A full fifth of the world's population winks out one day/night. No warning or buildup. Just gone; from one moment to another...

About the Author

Mr. Hunt is a naturalist and scientist who has earned four degrees in the biological, geological and engineering sciences and has worked in such divers fields as materials engineering and endangered species work.* He has lived and worked in Oregon and northern California and is a native of Oregon.

Mr. Hunt is interested in everything with an extraordinary memory for details. He reads everything from archaeology to history to zoology and has studied four languages. He writes non-fiction and fiction. He mastered basic relativity as a preteen, calculated and drew up star maps in high school, went into engineering and eventually natural resources when the economy contracted in the mid 1990s.

Mr. Hunt has had an overwhelming passion for fact, something more and more frequently ignored in the media and popular culture as the years have progressed.

When he's had time, he has painted, drawn and illustrated. His hobbies are day trips, hiking, photography, and writing. He does a lot of volunteer work.

He was born again at 11, is a practicing Christian, and writes Christian fiction as well as science fiction and non-fiction.
