Book Description
Visionary, gripping, sumptuous and tantalizing, Grande Junction is a masterwork of hip, literary science fiction. On October 4, 2057, most electronic devices on Earth are infected and destroyed by unknown viruses, and billions of people dependent on machine interfaces are killed as a result. Twelve years later, the survivors are sunk in a new Dark Age, a grim afterworld in which the only law is the law of the jungle. In the sprawling ruins of Grande Junction, a thriving urban community centered on an abandoned spaceport, civilization is hanging on by its fingernails. In this last fragile outpost of knowledge and reason, hope and faith, a second wave of lethal viruses is unleashed–viruses that attack human beings directly, stripping away language, thought, humanity itself. But it is also here that a young boy, a guitar-playing prodigy named Link de Nova, discovers within himself the power to fight a malevolent entity determined to remake the world in its own bleak image. Now, as the viruses spread and enemies converge on Grande Junction, Link and his friends and protectors, Chrysler Campbell and Yuri McCoy, prepare to fight for the survival of the human race with rifles, radios, and rock ’n’ roll.

Book Description
While training for a mountain bike race in July of 2015, a 45 year old male breaks down in the desert near Grand Junction, CO. While attempting to repair his bike, he discovers a hidden bicycle between two large rocks covered with scrub oak and bushes. After concluding that the fix to his rear wheel is a no-go, he decides to stash his bicycle and ride the "mysteriously futuristic and charmingly antiquated" bicycle back to town with the idea of retrieving his own bike later.The bike he found is not like anything he has seen before. It has a leather bag mounted to the center triangle of the frame. In it he finds a simple camera, some old coins, and some basic tools. Upon crossing the city limit sign on his way into town, our young athlete is transported back in time to Grand Junction's early days. Thirteen epic rides in the desert are the only way to get home.
