Dear Friends,

What if your teen could enjoy post-apocalyptic fiction and learn real-world preparedness through the eyes of someone their own age?

DJ Cooper first met Aidan at the Self-Reliance Expo in Aurora, Colorado, way back in 2022. Aidan loved the post-apocalyptic genre, but was also more knowledgeable about preparedness than many adults. Aidan wanted to learn to write and started writing apocalyptic books that could speak to a generation about the need to be self-sufficient. Those of us at Thrive Self-Reliance and Angry Eagle Publishing are so proud of this young man and can't wait to host him in 2026 back in Colorado.

Fractured Nation: A Post-Apocalyptic Adventure (Sunrise of Chaos Book 1) isn’t just another end-of-the-world story — it’s a bold, eye-opening journey written by a 16-year-old author who sees the fragility of our world and the strength it takes to survive when everything falls apart.

In this gripping, fast-paced tale, a fractured America becomes the training ground for courage, resilience, and leadership. Teens aren’t just the victims of collapse — they’re the ones learning to rebuild.

💥 Why you need this book:

• For your teen: It’s a story that entertains while teaching preparedness and self-reliance.
• For yourself: It’s proof that the next generation is paying attention — and ready to face whatever comes.
• For our future: Supporting young authors like this one encourages critical thinking, awareness, and hope in uncertain times.

This is more than fiction — it’s a spark of empowerment for young readers everywhere.
