Dennis Flannery and his wonderful wife Zelia live on a small cattle ranch just outside Bend, in central Oregon. Together they have traveled the world and have enjoyed its wonders and diverse beauty. But they have also witnessed the staggering inequities caused by corrupt and inept governments. They have observed the unbelievable poverty and appalling living conditions in which a large percentage of the world's population are forced to live. The daily news around the world is a constant reminder of how our beautiful planet is on the verge of being destroyed by over population, staggering crime, and power-hungry despots who have risen to power and now threaten the world with life-ending weapons. These eye-opening experiences and the seeming decay of civilization prompted Dennis to write these four novels. A possible solution to these world-ending scenarios is found in the pages of these novels.
