SECOND HARVEST is the second book in a series called "The Last Iteration" that takes the reader on an exciting adventure. The series explores the intersection of different technologies and how they evolve subject to one another, and the intersection of science and faith.There are implicit thematic elements of Smart Cities,Internet of Things and a Connected World of Everything as well as biotechnology that are integrated from a point of view on sustainability. Blurb: Faced with the cold brutality of Ashion the Dark and his thugs, Dexter Maxwell did something no time shifter had ever done before: he traveled back in time permanently. Now he must live the same thirty days again. But with Ashion and the local warlord hunting him, will there be enough time to save his new-and old- friends? On Venus, Ashion can't stop the subterranean resistance led by the man they call Fuel. But to keep his tenuous position as Security Lead, he must keep Dexter Maxwell's true identity hidden. That puts his daring plot to escape the grip of the Ruling Families in jeopardy-and is making it even harder to protect the last two people on Venus he needs alive: the mysterious Prisoner Six and the young girl Kat. The clock is ticking: the Ruling Families of Venus have set the Second Harvest in motion. As their chilling plan unfolds, four hundred years of betrayals put Dexter and Ashion on a deadly collision course ...and unlock an ancient threat to civilization.
