Publisher's summary

Visualize life in the 2070s. Climate has turned dangerous. Corporations have usurped human rights, and democracies are threatened.

Dog Breakfast (DB) co-op stands as a lone bastion of freedom and common sense. The operatives of DB are in a fight for their lives, for corporate mercs outnumber them by thousands to one.

Woke introduces striking characters who’ve elevated martial arts to another level. Yet empathy may be their best weapon. This is the first of three books in the Cool Assassins series. Together, they total 300,000 words, half each for male and female speakers. Outwardly, the narrative spoofs parenting, romance, and socioeconomics. It has many hints that will help folks endure the fallout from climate change. These tips work on an individual, as well as social level.
