Publisher's summary
Far into the future, the world has been torn asunder by meteors. The Cataclysm. The dust and debris from the deep space rocks have settled into the Earth and contain incredible power. The dust can change the environment around it, it can be used to power infrastructure, it can even be used to power weapons.
All former nations have been sub-divided into kingdoms, empire, and republics. Near endless wars are fought over the Dust and land. Some nations have mandatory conscription for all citizens to protect their land and resources. Axel Maze is one of those that are conscripted.
Is he mentally prepared? Can he kill when needed to? Will he make it to the next battle?

Story
Lance was just trying to get through his terrible day when his world came crashing down. As the blazing sun dipped below the horizon, Lance's heart pounded in his chest, each beat pushing him closer to the edge of desperation. Racing against time and a cosmic cataclysm, he must navigate a ravaged world after a monstrous CME strikes the Earth, plunging it into darkness. But this harrowing journey is not solely to survive the aftermath; it's a race to reach his injured father in distant Kansas, where a lonely farmhouse stands as their last beacon of hope.

Story
This is a fictionalized version of my late father's World War Two memoirs. It begins in the twenty-fifth century when a mischievous young woman inadvertently travels back in time with her 'toys' of the future. This tale is included in the anthology "Willful Women II". My most memorable experience about this story occurred when an elderly gentleman at a book fair saw the photo my father had taken from a mountaintop of numerous wartime ships gathering in a South Pacific staging area for battle. He excitedly exclaimed, "That's my ship, the U.S.S. West Virginia is one of the ships in this photo...

April 1, 1944, San Francisco, California. Reports of strange lights in the sky were no joke. They were, in fact, alien invaders. The lights could be seen every night, darting through the sky for days after. After the initial war nerves were put to rest. Folks started calling the strange lights “Foo Fighters” after the cartoon strip. On April 9, 1944, a strange dense fog rolled in over the city. That’s when the Walinzi invaders attacked under the cover of the fog, unseen until they were on shore. They easily wiped out the mighty gun batteries protecting the Presidio and the city. The ...

Hence, he'd joined the Space Force, the service with the most extensive array of Earth-side clerical specialties.
