Thunder Valley Trilogy

Time is short. The world is about to end, unless the second plan of the best and the brightest of humanity does not fail... as their first plan did. This is their last chance. And it's a hell of a ride. What do the President of the United States, the Premier of China, the President of Russia, the Prime Minister of Israel, the King of England, and the Drug King of Afghanistan have in common? They are now all people who have been hiding from the world in exquisitely beautiful Thunder Valley. Given no choice, this cadre of loving, brilliant men and women of the Valley must become the kings and queens of the world in order to save it. But that's not all. Behind the scenes, two brave women try to infiltrate the bastions of hell to protect the rest. The chances of success are slim. The odds that they will all lose their souls in the attempt are frighteningly high. Some will die. But however intense it gets... it is an extremely exciting and intense book... don't stop reading until the final resolution of The Final World Order on the very last page. It is what made writing this book possible. The Final World Order is the second book of The Thunder Valley Trilogy. The truly fine people of The End Of The Computer, first book of the trilogy, are back in action, this time in a book of fiction. Or as Andre speculates, perhaps future history, or predictive fiction. It seems all too real, because we are living parts of it now, in real time. In this second book, Eowyn's secrets are revealed... as far as she knows the truth of them. The full reality about her, her mother, her fathers, and the first commune of the Valley remain in the shadows until the third book of the trilogy... The First Commune.

William did not tell his daughter Eowyn the entire truth about the First Commune. He was embarrassed about many of the things he and her mother Jane did. More importantly, he felt so guilty about his causing Jane's death. Besides, Eowyn was mentally damaged. But she thought she understood enough to write about the First Commune in the fictional book The Final World Order. However, she was wrong about... almost everything. You do not have to read the first two books of The Thunder Valley Trilogy... The End Of The Computer and The Final World Order... to enjoy The First Commune. As long as you know about 'triples'. There is a small segment of humanity which has a natural mutation of an additional, third strand in their DNA helix. Disease organisms are baffled by their physical makeup, so their bodies remain strong and vital during an exceptionally long lifetime. There is one more significant difference. Triple women require a donation from two men at the same time to get pregnant. That both complicates their lives, and makes one thing a lot more simple. They tend to have an overabundance of sex hormones, but they can't get pregnant unless they really work at it. So triple women tend to gravitate to the world's oldest profession. Thus the genesis of the first commune in the 60's. The 1860's. Quite naturally, this book is full of bawdy sexuality. Some would call it explicit in a few places. Personally, I think those places are just an honest look at various aspects of human sexuality. I'm sure the authors looked at it that way, especially since they experienced it for themselves. Yet this book is overarchingly and almost achingly about a great love between two exceptionally deep people. Well, perhaps between four exceptionally deep people. Or you could say six. It takes over a hundred years an a lot of grand mistakes before the ones who survive finally get things right. Anyway, reader discretion is advised, and no one who is not truly adult should read this book under any circumstances.

My darling husband has odd ideas of propriety. He thinks that having a non-writer do the backs of these books will keep the surprises from coming out too early. That is both true, and an essentially bad idea. People want to know what is in a book before they spend their time reading it. So, since I can say anything I want... here it is. 1. The book explains exactly what and who we triples really are. 2. It gives you the story of how Thunder Valley came into existence. 3. It's full of sex. The third point is not Pat's fault. Neither is it mine, nor Jane's nor Eowyn's. Those two women were shown the events, I remembered the events, and Pat made the events into a story in the common language. We are the messengers only. I don't mind that it is full of sex. I'm a triple. If any of you reading this are a triple, you know exactly what I mean. It is hard keeping it straight when you are always in heat... at least until you find the right two men to marry... isn't that right? Now imagine you didn't know you were a triple, because you were one of the first triples. Imagine that you could not understand why you had the impulses you were having as you reached the golden eighties. Would you be like twisted Shanta and Bria in the book? I'm sure I would have been. After my experiences in Ireland during the Rebellion, I went down a very dark road, for many years. It is only because my co-wife Colleen is such a dear and generous heart that I'm finally rid of all that... all that. I don't want to even talk about it anymore. l just want to tell you that I'm going to see William again after all these years. Thank you, Jane. It's going to be quite a month, or two, or... however long it takes.
