David Wilson Synopses: First Steps is book 1 in David Wilson’s Lone Star Odyssey series. After more than two decades in the U.S. Marine Corps and five grueling years as a contractor in Afghanistan, Talon Clark wants nothing more than to enjoy a quiet life on his Texas ranch with his wife and children. But when a routine short-term contract job strands him in Washington, D.C., his plans are shattered. A series of false flag attacks on critical infrastructure, followed by catastrophic EMP strikes, plunge the nation into chaos. As cities burn and society collapses, Talon is left with no choice but to make the perilous 1,400-mile journey home—on foot. With just a week’s worth of supplies in his get-home bag, he must use every ounce of his training and determination to survive the lawless ruins of the capital and reach his family before it’s too late. But from the very first step, it becomes clear: nothing about this mission will be easy.

Obstacles is the second book in David Wilson’s Lone Star Odyssey series. After surviving terrorist strikes and a devastating EMP attack that crippled the nation, Talon Clark believed he was finally on the path home. But the loss of a teammate deals a heavy blow to the group’s morale, leaving everyone shaken and questioning their strength. When a recent clash with a terrorist cell puts Talon’s team on the radar of the Iranian Supreme Command, the situation becomes even more dire. Now targeted by hostile operatives determined to eliminate them, the group is thrust into a fight for survival. As if that weren’t enough, Talon agrees to a high-risk rescue mission that, while meant to aid his return to Texas, may cost him everything. With dangers mounting and time slipping away, Talon remains resolute—no matter the cost, he will make it back to his family.

Choices by David Wilson is book 3 in the Lone Star Odyssey series. Having escaped the devastation of Northern Virginia, Talon Clark and his small band of survivors now face an even greater challenge: rescuing the rest of their group. With the country in total collapse and danger lurking at every turn, every decision carries weight. As enemies draw closer and time runs short, Talon must choose between staying to aid his friends or continuing his journey home to reunite with his family. In a world turned upside down, every choice comes with a price.
