Earth Shift (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781496066114)

Mankind has escaped extinction many times over the last hundred thousand years. Usually they survived in small pockets of huddled humanity, managing to escape death and destruction by some lucky circumstance. In Earth Shift the wheel of fate has turned again. This time though, we have science and technology on our side to break this cycle of extermination. This time it will be different. Or will it? Scientific evidence proves a rapid shift in the earth's axis happens every twelve to fourteen thousand years. An uneven distribution of ice in the Polar Regions triggers a shift on the earth's surface. Land masses move hundreds of miles in a matter of seconds, wiping out all evidence of man, and the structures they built. The last shift occurred twelve thousand years ago, at the close of the last ice age. The human population was reduced to a mere forty thousand human beings on the entire planet. The scientific evidence is clear, and it shows that the shift is past due to happen again. Earth Shift is story of love and bravery in the face of cataclysmic death and destruction. If everyone you knew, relatives, friends, and neighbors, were going to die, would you tell them? What if the government has sworn you to secrecy? It's not like you can do anything about it. Or is there? This is a story about what will happen in the not too distant future. How will you face the total annihilation of our species? Will you fight and shake your fist in the face of God? Or will you slip silently into the dark, without even a whimper? Can you hear the tolling of the bell even now? Does it toll for you?
