Welcome to the Near Future. This box set contains the first six books of the Near Future series, a near future sci-fi thriller series set in a world that combines science that just might be possible with psychic visions and an evil Organization that is backed by an unknown power. Discovery of who is behind that power and how to overcome them will progress throughout the series.Four full-length novels and two novellas bring us the story of two special young people. Enhanced by special nanites, they create some amazing inventions and overcome those that would oppose them. Along the way, they help others in need and move the world forward with technology, all while working to overcome those that stand in their way, in the process saving the Earth more than once.This series is intended to be a light and fun read, and I hope this box set continues that tradition. Because life is not without conflict, our characters must overcome obstacles and face the emotions such conflicts generate. As we go through the series, we get to meet new characters, some good and some bad, and some that will stay with us while others will not. Some we'll be glad to see go!BOOKS BY RANDAL SLOANNear Future Series - First ArcNear Future Book 1: AwakeningNear Future Book 2: AspirationsNear Future Book 3: AscendancyNear Future Book 4: Juliette's Space RaceNear Future Book 5: OriginsNear Future Book 6: Alternate- Box Set 1Near Future Series - IntermissionThe Great Future Mashup*Near Future Series - Second ArcNear Future Book 7: TransitionsNear Future Book 8: JourneysNear Future Book 9: Resolution- Box Set 2Far Future Series - First ArcFar Future Book 1: BeginningsFar Future Book 2: BadlandsFar Future Book 3: BorjonFar Future Book 4: New EarthFar Future Book 5: BarriersFar Future Series - IntermissionThe Great Future Mashup*Far Future Series - Second ArcFar Future Book 6: SuccessionFar Future Book 7: EmpireYoung Wizards of Callidore SeriesYoung Wizards of Callidore Book 1: Dragon FireThe Great Future Mashup*Young Wizards of Callidore Book 2: Objects of PowerYoung Wizards of Callidore Joining of Forces (forthcoming)Near Future, Far Future and u0026 Wizards of CallidoreThe Great Future MashupBad Mage SeriesBad Mage Book 1: EmergenceBad Mage Book 2: Old MagicPsychic Future SeriesPsychic Future Book 1: Justice*The Great Future Mashup is shown in order of appearance in each series
