Graham's Resolution Trilogy Bundle: Books 1-3 (72 page)

About the Author

A. R. Shaw, born in south Texas, served in the US Air Force Reserve from 1987 through 1991 as a communications radio operator, where she was stationed at the Military Auxiliary Radio System (MARS) Station at Kelly Air Force Base, Texas.

Her first novel,
The China Pandemic
(2013), climbed to number 1 in the dystopian and postapocalyptic (SHTF) genres in May 2014 and was hailed as “eerily plausible” and with characters that are “amazingly detailed.” Shaw continues to write the Graham’s Resolution series.

Shaw lives with her family in eastern Washington State where, after the deep snow of winter finally gives way to the glorious rays of summer, she treks northeast to spend her days writing alongside the beautiful Skagit River.

No work of fiction is completed wholly on one’s own. Research on any given subject can take weeks and even months and, more crucially, the help of several key individuals whom the author bugs on many occasions. Here I’d like to thank those who put up with my many questions or contributed in some way to this book.

Keri Knutson,
Cover artist

Brian Bendlin,
Editor extraordinaire
