Book excerpt: In a world run by machines, humans are an endangered species -- and their only hope is a rebel warrior with nothing left to lose. The Great War is over. The robots have won. The humans who survived have two choices: they can submit and serve the vicious rulers they created, or be banished to the Reserve, a desolate, unforgiving landscape where it's a crime just to be human. Following the orders of their soulless leader, the robots are planning to conquer humanity's last refuge and make all humans bow down. The only thing more powerful than an enemy who feels nothing is a rebel warrior with a cause and nothing left to lose. Six is a feisty, determined woman whose parents were killed with the first shots of the war, and whose siblings lie rotting in prison. Her partner in crime is Dubs, the one person who respects authority even less than she does. On the run for their lives after an attempted massacre, Six and Dubs are determined to save humanity before the robots wipe humans off the face of the earth. Pushed to the brink of survival, they discover a powerful secret that may set humanity free, but to succeed they'll have to trust the unlikeliest of allies . . . or be forced to bow down, once and for all. Full of twists and turns from the world's #1 writer, Humans, Bow Down is an epic, dystopian, genre-bending thrill ride you'll never forget.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The unknown book is formulated on fictional events that can or may have taken place in maybe your life or someone close to you. Not in as much as an actual event that has taken place in the reality of this life but in a reality of a life that we have no awareness of. But we create our own realities in our own minds based off what we choose to be, real and unreal. A lot of these choices that we make are based off fear, doubt, and a nonexistent understanding, which allows our narcissism to peak overwhelmingly, thereby leaving us with a naked, skeletonized truth of who we really are, therefore leading us into the place in which I like to call the Unknown.
