  The general plan is for each story in the series to provide a glimpse of both typical and critical events amid an increasingly unstable world in which natural, technological and mythical forces are being unleashed due to climate change and other human induced problems. In the first three stories at least, the emphasis has been strongly science/science fiction Vs fantasy.

  In the first story Ed Rumsfeld and his wife Mary are introduced, along with emerging aspects of the global warming/climate change dilemma including the amazing intelligent ants called jants, their creator Jerry Green (a rogue itinerant gene-splicer) and the Government agents that pursue him.

  In the second story Ed and his wife Mary move to a Native American reservation where the ancient Stone Coats/Ice Giants of Mohawk tribal legend are found to be creatures of history instead of being mere myths, and to be animated by silicone and carbon-based 'smart rock' with science-known properties rather than through supernatural means. Though disaster is averted the creatures became allies of the jants in their long-term plan to replace mankind. Also, as New England is to become colder as a result of climate change, the Reservation faces an uncertain future.

  This third story of the series takes place two decades later in New York City and features the jants and a new human character.

  Currently ten releases have been sketched out for this series. How/if the Earth and humanity will survive the trauma of global warming is at this time not known by the author. We will need to discover how things turn out together.

  As always I thank my wife and daughters for putting up with all this writing nonsense, Bill Gates for his useful spell-checker that makes even physics-trained engineers passable spellers, and my favorite author James P. Blaylock for his inspiringly silly fabulist fantasy writings. I wish also to thank the makers of Paint, the freeware which supports my awkward creation of nifty little e-book covers.

  Happy reading!
