SUMMARY OF WORKS

Right Hand of the Resistance
In a world eerily parallel to our own, life is bisected by the Barrier—a monolithic edifice that symbolizes division and control. It segregates nations and dictates the very fate of those bold enough to cross. "Right Hand of the Resistance," by Paul Michael Peters, a dystopian story melds the heart-pounding suspense of Tom Clancy, the speculative genius of Dan Simmons, and the prescient vision of George Orwell, capturing the essence of a divided society. It challenges the ‘Golden Rule’ to ask, “How well should we treat one another?” The narrative follows the perilous treks to the north, fraught with danger yet illuminated by the hope of a better existence beyond the oppressive divide.

Paul Michael Peters maps a world where passage across the Barrier involves high costs and profound sacrifices, under the watchful eyes of authorities dictating fates. Amidst this, a covert resistance emerges, daring to defy and dismantle the status quo, embodying the novel's core of rebellion and resilience.
