Plague, famine, and fear grip the United States as war rages across the globe. A single father with a secret of his own, will do anything to give his daughter a better life, but the sacrifice may be greater than anything he could have ever imagined. Five years after the Chinese Axis detonated an unknown weapon of mass destruction off the southern coast of the United States, Special Ops Sergeant John Crider and the members of Shadow Company have finally captured what they all hope will lead to the end of the war. Unfortunately, the population within the United States is no longer sustainable. In an effort to stabilize the economy, the government enacts the Cryonics Act. One hundred years in suspended animation, all debt forgiven, and a chance at a less crowded future are too good to pass up for John and his young daughter. Except not everything always goes as planned as Sergeant John Crider finds himself pitted against a land of prehistoric monsters genetically resurrected from the fossil record, murderous inhabitants, and a future he never wanted.

Christopher Laflan was born in Glenwood Springs, Colorado to a family constantly on the move due to his father's lineman job. Long hours in a vehicle with nothing but a window, good music, and an ever-changing backdrop sowed the seeds of a high octane, slightly overactive, imagination. During college, Christopher began to write, admittedly terrible short stories but discovered his love for the craft. After receiving a Graduate Degree in Business Education from Hastings College, and later an MBA from Baker University, he moved to Kansas City to work in the financial sector. During these Kansas City years, he began to work on his first full-length Fantasy novel. Soon after completing his first manuscript, Christopher was contracted by Severed Press (2014 Horror Publisher of the Year) to write a SF/Thriller/Horror novel, which would later become A MAN OUT OF TIME. Christopher currently lives in Ogallala, Nebraska with his wife and two sons. When he's not working on his latest story, you can find him on his boat or out with the family.  For each novel, the Laflan family chooses a charity to dedicate a portion of every sale.
