The Knight Shamans are more than mystics in a post-apocalyptic landscape. Their journey begins with a question: what happens when people awaken to themselves, to the spirit world, and to the responsibilities of rebuilding society?
In The Apocrypha of the Knight Shamans, awakening is never a single moment. It is a process—a difficult movement from inherited assumptions toward a deeper understanding of self, community, and the unseen forces shaping both.
This is the Founder's Age: a time when the west has been abandoned after a series of cataclysmic earthquakes and a time when one man's vision must become far more than he ever intended.
This little community must survive demons, other villagers attacks; and their own internal self to reclaim spirit power for their world.
Join Justin Earl Knight, his son Rodney Knight, young Peter Williams, and others as they face a new world where old powers are awakening and they wonder -- is it the gods interfering in the affairs of man, or is it man shaping the affairs of the gods?

What Does It Mean to Awaken in a Broken World?
The Knight Shamans are more than mystics in a post-apocalyptic landscape. Their journey begins with a question: what happens when people awaken to themselves, to the spirit world, and to the responsibilities of rebuilding society?
In The Apocrypha of the Knight Shamans, awakening is never a single moment. It is a process—a difficult movement from inherited assumptions toward a deeper understanding of self, community, and the unseen forces shaping both.
The world of the series has already been shattered by earthquakes, political conflict, social collapse, and forgotten dangers. Yet the books are not only about surviving catastrophe. They ask what survivors do next. When roads, institutions, and familiar rules disappear, people must decide which parts of the old world deserve to be restored and which should be left behind.
The inner awakening
A Knight Shaman must first awaken the spirit society has buried beneath programming, fear, and cultural expectations. That awakening is personal, but it is never merely private. Rodney’s ability to see the spirits of the dead, Peter’s emerging shamanic talent, and Justin Earl Knight’s struggles with his own demons all reveal different paths toward self-knowledge.These characters do not receive simple answers. Their gifts come with obligations. To see more clearly is also to carry more responsibility. A shaman must confront the Other Worlds, interpret what is found there, and determine how spiritual knowledge can guide living people without becoming another form of control.
Demons to banish. Fallen Angels unmasked. Pantheons falling where others are rising. Enemies become lovers and Lovers become enemies.
This three-book omnibus is in hardcover and costs less than the three separate paperback versions.

"A Dog's Tale" made me laugh out loud. It was a perfect, whimsical start that immediately engaged my imagination.
I loved the introductions and asides you included throughout the collection. When you explained the origins of your pen name or the context for a poem, it felt like we were sitting and having a chat. This created a deep sense of connection and intimacy that unified the diverse pieces into a cohesive, personal whole.
Poems like "Traveler" and "Sunset Thoughts" were incredibly moving. The vulnerability and raw emotion in "Traveler," describing a love lost before it could even be named, was heartbreaking in the best way. It made the collection feel profoundly human and relatable.
The story "Forbidden" was a real page-turner. I felt anxious for Justice as he fled the enforcers, and the fight scenes were genuinely tense. I was completely invested in his mission to protect the truth.
This heartfelt collection invites readers on a journey through the author’s creative mind, blending poignant poetry, personal essays, and imaginative tales of fantasy and science fiction. From whimsical dogs and imperiled priests to lovers lost in time and space, "Reflections" is an intimate exploration of memory, identity, and the magic found in the act of creation itself. It’s a perfect book to curl up with by the fire.

This is it! The last day of the 5-days
FREE!!! FREE!!! FREE!!!
sale of the First Knight Shaman! This is the first book in the Founder's Age of the World of Paradigm Lost by R. Roderick Rowe.
With the upcoming release of the final novel in the installment, you will want to get in on the ground floor of this new EPIC experience!
What's being said about the upcoming novel,
The Third Book of the Knight Shamans?
"This story would most likely appeal to an adult 30+ audience with some college level education, who appreciate literary and speculative fiction. The ideal reader enjoys complex, character-driven narratives with deep philosophical and social focus. The significant LGBTQ+ representation and themes of religious trauma and spiritual exploration would make it particularly resonant with LGBTQ+ readers and those who support them.
It is for a reader who enjoys Frank Herbert's Dune and the moral ambiguity of Octavia Butler's work, rather than the typical post-apocalyptic survival thriller.
Similar books:
1. Parable of the Sower by Octavia Butler.
2. The Stand by Stephen King.
3. The Canticle for Leibowitz by Walter M Miller Jr.

The Third Book of the Knight Shamans
... is back from the editor. The edits were so few that I was able to get them implemented in only a couple hours.
She loved it! Okay, as much as ANY editor can love/hate anything. LOL.
Here's some notes from other early explorers:
Nuanced Exploration of Faith
"The manuscript skillfully explores the nature of faith from multiple, contrasting perspectives. It presents faith as a source of oppressive bigotry (a "Christian" church), a tool for personal connection (shamanism), and a fallen, flawed system that has brought disaster into the world. This multifaceted approach creates a thought-provoking and complex thematic landscape."Confronting Past Trauma
"The theme that the past's problems don't disappear with civilization is effectively woven throughout the narrative. The re-emergence of religious fanaticism and the AIDS virus --both "old world" threats-- forces the characters to actively confront historical trauma rather than simply escape it, giving the story significant depth."And some VERY flattering character comparisons:
Justin Knight: Similar to Hari Seldon from Isaac Asimov's "Foundation" series.
Rodney Knight: Similar to Leto II Atreides (pre-transformation) from Frank Herbert's "Dune Messiah."
Peter Williams: Similar to Paul Atreides from Frank Herbert's "Dune."Wow! Two comparisons with Frank Herbert's characters. And it's only a 50K novel!
Remember, the first novella in this trilogy within the World of Paradigm Lost is still free until tomorrow at midnight! What are you really waiting for? You gotta get started on this so you can be ready when the final book in the trilogy is released. Soon. VERY Soon!

I made some time to watch #GreenlandMovie this last week. I had missed it when it came out. I'm usually a fan of apocalyptic or post-apocalyptic fiction and this movie definitely fits the bill. A comet flys by the Earth and part of it of various sizes start impacting the Earth. Chaos ensues.
It definitely has a lot of tension and suspense. Cast is really good. #GerardButler #MorenaBaccarin I've gotten to enjoy #ScottGlenn lately as the old curmudgen and he does it here faithfully.
I think I expected a little more from it though I'm not sure what. But... I hear there is a sequel planned. It will poke my post-apocalyptic button, so I'm sure I'll see it when it comes out.
Did you see it? What did you think?

Peter Heller's #PostApocalypticFiction novel is a bit like "Earth Abides" from George R. Stewart, only with a plane. The plane reminded me of Mitchell Hashimoto (who is licensed private pilot since 2000) from #HashiCorp flying through California in a Cesna. Nice weekend reading.

I've been editing my story, Howls & Hope, and I finally got to a chapter where I'm making major changes. I'm adding in a party scene where everyone is having a good time. In the next chapter, a whole lot of people are going to die, and I think this addition will make their deaths more poignant. #mywriting #mybook #amediting #writingcommunity #writersofmastodon #mastowriters #postapocalypticfiction

@jannem @schock I am reading this piece of post-apocalyptic fiction right now. Even this gentle depiction – some would say "dull" – requires a little suspension of disbelief when it comes to infrastructure and maintenance of equipment.
#yokohamakaidashikikou #ykk #postapocalypticfiction -
2 - Were any of your fictional settings inspired by real-world locations?
All of my post-apocalypse novels are set in and around London and Essex/Hertfordshire because I live around here and love to visualise how the area would look like after an apocalyptic collapse.
-
23 - If you switched places with the MC, would you survive the story?
Probably not.
The odds of me randomly being underground on that Tuesday at 11AM? Not great.Which means I would have collapsed, haemorrhaging from eyes, nose, and died.

11 - Does your MC laugh or cry more in the story?
Virginia doesn't cry a lot. She's quite stoic. Everyone she knows has died. She's suffering from migraines and nosebleeds. She's convinced that she's next. That thought is overwhelming.
The End We Saw is about found family, finding inner strength, and as the story unfolds, Virginia eventually finds reasons to laugh again.
