    About this ebook

    In the year 2085, Dr Josef Hanson, his son Louis and less than two dozen others; possibly the last survivors of humanity, watch the destruction of Earth from Chronicle; a multi-billion dollar base on the moon. Built to preserve the world’s history, its library archive becomes an invaluable resource and symbol of hope for survival.

    But that’s not all; inside lies a supercomputer known as the Black Box, that stores knowledge of almost every past human achievement. When the survivors discover the technology, Josef struggles to step up in leadership, and deal with the rising tensions that follow his restriction on the use of the machine. Not everyone is convinced there is hope, and disagreements lead to dire consequences.

    The world will shatter before them, again...

    Brendan Parsons

    Brendan James Parsons, known for the cinematic scope of his work, has led a mostly peaceful career as a student writer. He is an aspiring author; currently furthering his talents within his Bachelor of Arts and Communications degree at Edith Cowan University, Perth, Western Australia. From every course, unit and lecture comes an ever expanding plethora of ideas. When not out with friends, distracted by pets or otherwise engaged with work, he lets his creative mind wander to other areas of artistry; his many interests across multiple mediums, which fuel his love affair for telling compelling stories that, excite and inspire. Over the years he has won prizes for his talents in low-key writing competitions, and is looking forward to what the future holds. His narrative sense draws him to action, comedy, drama, fantasy and thriller genres.
