    The Sword and the Sunflower Series

    By Mark Bradford

    ()

    About this series

    While writing The Sword and the Sunflower I often referenced a history of pain and suffering and catastrophe—of horrible times in which the Earth lost most of its inhabitants. What created the beautiful and wondrous yet dangerous world of Stojan and Anastazja was a long history of what occurred after an apocalypse. What happened was mostly a memory in my mind as I wrote. It was a place I dared not go. But I knew the story eventually had to be told.

    So, now I am telling the story of exactly what happened. The catastrophe, the deaths, the suffering. The tale of how the interlopers manipulated humanity and used their beliefs against them. You can now learn how we lost our technology, how we were made to rely on their wisdom—a wisdom that actually came from us. It is not a story of broad brushes but of intimate relationships, and how not people, but each person dealt with such a thing.

    What would you do if all your tech was taken away? If your loved ones were gone before you knew it? What skills do you have to survive—without a government, a military, or electricity. Are you ready for that? And what would you do if the saviors of the human race came. How would you react to The Saints? And what would you do if your world was turned Upside Down.

    She's found an unlimited supply.

    The world should remember her as the one who solved the energy needs equation but unfortunately, they won't remember her at all.

      1,000 years in the future, a grieving father seeks a job one last time—to assassinate a man he's never met. His agreement is not what it seems, and what he finds changes him forever. This fantasy adventure explores the aftermath of such a catastrophe—in a new world distant yet familiar to us. It questions duty, and family and challenges beliefs —all through the eyes of three strangers that have no business coming together. Each one impacts the life of the other in ways they could not have known. A prophecy or just a poem? If you liked: Ladyhawke, Alita: Battle Angel For fans of Michael Moorcock, Alan Dean Foster.   Best New Author 2020—audiobookreviewer
