High Arena (and Buttercup's Run‪)‬

Written to accompany movies, the two novellas (and an imbedded surprise) are fast-paced light action adventure stories filled with fun and humor and a delightful collection of strange characters. In post-apocalyptic High Arena, a family of nomadic free traders in the high Rockies must confront an authoritarian survival group in control of the only pass to the south. Their hope lies in Joker, who flies an antique ultralight "skycyk" airplane. In Buttercup's Run, a mismatched mercenary team must move a politically-sensitive cargo across Mexico in a computerized super truck with a mind of her own, pursued by a gallery of experts and idiots.
