Blitz: Journey to 2125 by Gary F. Bengier
In an era where technology rapidly transforms our world, one family’s journey through the next century reveals the profound impacts of these changes. Gary Bengier's latest novel, “Journey to 2125,” offers a compelling mix of family saga, political drama, and hard-science speculation.
“Journey to 2125: One Century, One Family, Rising to Challenges” unfolds in the year 2125 when a long-separated grandson arrives seeking answers. Max MacGyver recounts their family’s tumultuous century, revealing a narrative rich with adventure, rivalry, loss, and survival. Set over a single day, the novel explores why the boy’s parents moved to a secluded Commune and the family secrets his grandfather discloses. From a young boy fleeing war in Asia to a young couple battling for privacy amid rapid technological and political changes, this story is a hard-science exploration of how humanity might navigate the challenges and opportunities of the next hundred years. Through personal stories and global issues, Bengier examines the intersection of technology, politics, and human resilience.
Author Bio: Gary F. Bengier is a writer, philosopher, and technologist with a deep interest in how technology and human experience intersect. After a notable career in Silicon Valley, including his role as eBay’s Chief Financial Officer, Bengier pursued his passion for astrophysics and philosophy. His previous work, “Unfettered Journey,” earned acclaim for its philosophical depth and realistic world-building. He lives in San Francisco with his wife and two children, dividing his time between writing, beekeeping, and tending to his Napa vineyard.
Journey to 2125: One Century, One Family, Rising to Challenges by Gary F. Bengier releases Fall 2024 and is available for Pre-Order on Amazon.

Reality Boy by A. S. King
Gerald Faust knows exactly when he started feeling angry: the day his mother invited a reality television crew into his five-year-old life. Twelve years later, he’s still haunted by his rage-filled youth—which the entire world got to watch from every imaginable angle—and his anger issues have resulted in violent outbursts, zero friends, and clueless adults dumping him in the special education room at school.

Thanks for coming to see me; but by the time you read this, it will be too late. No one will have started to panic, yet; but in less than two months nothing will be the same. What came first, The Chicken or the Egg Flu? I wish it mattered. But let’s just say, maybe go back to wearing a mask, bathing in sanitizer, and avoid birds and eggs for a bit…
