The Continuity Chronicles
“The government has a plan for the end of the world. You’re not in it.”
Legally Required to Call It Fiction
// The Series
The Books
Read in order. Each book stands on its own, but the paperwork carries forward.
Book One
The Meadow Protocol
A manila envelope lands on a picnic table in Colorado. Two words on the front: Cerberus is awake. Nobody at the Ranch has to ask what happens next.
Book Two
The Brush
The storm arrives early and sloppy. Every grid on the continent cascades in an afternoon. The Ranch holds — and then the first neighbours arrive at the gate.
Book Three
Unassigned Authority
A SKYKING broadcast repeats on a channel that should be dead. The order is valid. The authority behind it is not — and nobody left alive can prove which.
Series Starter Bundle
Books 1 & 2 together — The Meadow Protocol and The Brush.
The Complete Trilogy
All three books — The Meadow Protocol, The Brush, and Unassigned Authority.
In Development
The question stops being who has the launch codes and starts being whose designation letter was never withdrawn.
// Insider Information
The Companies Behind the Characters
Every one of them is fictional. Every one of them is the sort of company that would actually exist. Their public face, their people, and what they really do.
// Profile
GlobalTec
Company profile. Operations, reach, and the quiet partnerships that drive the trilogy.
// Network & Satellite Assets
GlobalTec — Asset Registry
Network infrastructure and satellite asset registry. The backbone you don’t see.
// Profile
3C’s Communications
Local communications shop. Bigger reach than the storefront suggests.
// Profile
Alex’s Demolition & Construction
Earthworks, controlled demolition, and the kind of project nobody asks twice about.
// Profile
McAllister Outfitting
High-country guides, pack strings, and back-country logistics. The Ranch’s quiet front door.
// Profile
High Country Air
Charter and short-haul aviation across the Mountain West. Wheels up when it matters.
// Profile
Pikie’s Perfect Cast
Fly fishing outfitter on the South Park rivers. Patient hands, careful eyes.
// Leaked Information
Companion Dossiers
Some of this was leaked. Some of it was never classified in the first place — which is the more unsettling category. Gated packets require a book code, formatted as page · line · word, drawn from the published trilogy.
// Packet · Shadow Government
The Open File
Executive orders never revoked. Directives with classified annexes Congress was refused access to. Emergency action documents that have never once been released, to anybody, in any administration. Every exhibit is public record. That’s the problem.
// Packet · The Voice After the Fire
Black Wake
Twenty-four satellites nobody will confirm are up there. Plutonium hearts, an eighty-seven-year half-life, built to outlive the country that launched them — and to hold the chain of command together after the surface stops answering. Black Wake is fiction. The pieces are not.
// Book One · Property Plan
The Ranch
Property layout, outbuildings, approaches, and the people who hold it together. The open showcase — no purchase, no code, nothing withheld.
// Book One · Photographs & Blueprints
Inside the Meadow
Forensic photographs and construction blueprints from inside the Meadow facility. The rooms, the corridors, and the plans they were built from.
// Book One · Infrastructure Map
The Long Lines
Continental backbone map, hardened relay sites, and command spurs. The network built to survive the thing that took everything else.
// Packet · Routing Architecture
Continuity Routing
Continental transit spine, hardened stations, and the routes that were never on a public map. Somebody dug a great deal of tunnel and filed it under something else.
