The After Climate Disruption
Psychological Sci-Fi
Book Series
…
It all started after the Disruption.
Climate change, combined with a failed AI startup, backfired on humanity. The result?
Within a decade, no one lived past the age of thirty-five. And those who survived weren’t exactly hopeful.
But desperation has a way of sparking innovation.
Somehow, humanity scraped together a future.
…
Two types of energy emerged.
Natural energy, called Ability. A gift only the lucky were born with.
Artificial energy, in the form of Crystals. Painful to wear but capable of prolonging life.
Both promise something better. But everything has a cost.
…
These forces collide, fighting for dominance. Even among the stars, conflict remains.
How does anyone survive a world like this?
Let’s find out.

Note from the author:
The ACD Series is a soft sci-fi psychological narrative set in a doomed but possible future where humanity somehow figured out how to survive.
The writing is emotionally intense, sometimes rough. The characters are messy, complicated, and difficult to pin down as ‘good’ or ‘bad.’ All right, one is definitely a villain, and no, it’s not Riley.
So far, the series includes three books:
Elements, Bridges, and Horizons
