About this series

They’d found the cache of ships, the supplies, and the means to cross the Great Salty Billows, escaping certain death from a horde of treacherous Assembly guards and violent earth tremors on a crumbling continent called the Void. Leaving behind all they’d known for four hundred years, a life filled with fear, oppression, annihilation on the spidy nets and slavery, they’d sailed into the unknown, crossing violent stormy seas and facing behemoth sea-beasts to discover a mist-covered paradise of green and plenty, and a colony of gentle people who knew they were coming and have their own prophecy.

But paradise lasts less than a day as the volcano, Tarnaki, spews out warning eruptions of fire and poisonous gas. The sudden appearance of warring invaders from the North threatens to overtake them, and ancient prophecies from all sides come to life as impending doom forces the wah-drones to flee southward. With their new companions, they follow remnant strands of the prophecies, seeking their promised land of plenty and journeying into the Stones of Fire.

    Spidy, Recluse's Revenge

    In a post-apocalyptic Australia, born a prisoner of no worth in a dystopian land gone dead and dry from the nuclear, betrayed by those she trusts, a pint-sized heroine, Skoshi (Lil' bit), is forced into wah-drone service, a gatherer harvesting wah from seasonal mists in the Void. With more than her share of sass, courage, spirit, wit and determination she quickly draws a team of protectors and mates to her side. Chaos mounts as she and her team escape mutant spidys, a death sentence, and violent earth changes that threaten to tear their world apart. Drawn into a vortex of danger, she and her mates follow encrypted clues left by the ancients to discover a forbidden track to freedom, one that promises a new life in a new land. But all is not as it seems and the betrayal runs deeper than anyone can imagine.

    Escape to the Billows

    Earthquakes rip through the wah-less desert of the Void tearing deep jagged wounds through its heart in a post-apocalyptic dystopian Australia. Racing with the wind and against time, Mika, Stokes and Skoshi rescue stranded prisoners from certain death, running just ahead of escalating disasters that seem to shadow their every turn. Seeking shelter in the Outlander's Enclave on the great salty billows, they are joined by hundreds of drone-vets who've quit their dwellings to follow them on the rumored freedom-track. Skoshi, Mika and Healer Sam uncover ancient clues to a 400-year old riddle and the trail leads to a cache of ancient ships for crossing the billows, with a vast storehouse of knowledge in seafaring, farming, building and freedom to prepare them for a new life in a new land. But ferocious storms and rumors of ancient plagues resurface and as unseen forces drive them to the brink of despair, they are hunted, hounded and threatened by gatherers and Assembly guards. Just as escape appears within their grasp, an all-out assault by the City-brights draws them back into a disintegrating Void, jeopardizing their quest for freedom.

She has worked in surgery as a scrub tech/circulator, a flower shop, chemical plant, bronze foundry, and for 20+ years was a successful bronze artist and writer of prose, showing and selling in venues and galleries across the greater Southwest. In mid-careers, Cooper and her husband took a two and a half year sabbatical with Peace Corps, to work in Burundi, East Africa, where she earned the JFK Volunteer of the Year Services Award (as her second-self, A. Pauwels). She has written a non-fiction book, Turtle Tushies in the Land of Banana Beer, A Peace Corps Memoir, about their adventures in teaching fish-farming among a heart-warming people. Cooper loves the solitude and process of creative writing. She has completed six dystopian future-fiction/sci-fi action-adventure and space opera novels, replete with strong female protagonists, side-kicks, heroines, heroes and an abundant and appropriate number of villains. She enjoys writing/reading, friends, ballroom dancing, painting, sculpting, travel, kayaking and good movies. Cooper currently greets the sun each morning with her fun-loving Mom. They reside on a beautiful tree-covered hill above a quiet valley.
