Caveat Emptor: A Dystopian Political Thriller (The America, Inc. Saga Book 4) Kindle Edition
When you choose to trust someone…let the buyer beware.
In a retelling of his Orwellian 2015 Black Swan Saga, award-winning and Amazon best-selling author Mikael Carlson reintroduces a speculative fiction saga showing the world’s terrifying dystopian future.
Caveat Emptor is the fourth installment in the ultimate struggle between liberty and tyranny. Powerful corporations and elites scheme to maintain control as revolutionaries fight for survival against an insurmountable force. Will they survive to usher in a new age, or will they be eradicated as a new power rises to dominate the world?
Readers are strongly encouraged to begin the journey with this The Black Swan Event and enjoy the America, Inc. Saga in the order they were written.
Today's friends are tomorrow's enemies...and vice versa.
The corporate-controlled world is crumbling. As terrorist attacks planned by the elites to sow the seeds of chaos rock corporations around the globe, America Incorporated’s chief executive officer is struggling to maintain her power. Just when it appears all is lost, there is a glimmer of hope to regain control…but it comes at a cost.
For the remaining members of Liberteum, things are about to go from bad to worse. Betrayed, hunted, and desperate, they must launch a last-ditch effort to complete their Archimedes plan before they are annihilated. Except they can’t do it alone. Fate brings new friends and forges fresh alliances that may be enough to stop the world from falling back into the clutches of its abusive corporate overlords.
The fate of both sides rests on a full-scale invasion of Manhattan using weapons not seen in decades. For America Incorporated and its executives, the move is a high-stakes gamble that may dictate the future of the corporate world and the billions of people who live in it. For Liberteum, it’s life and death.
Part military thriller, part political thriller, The America, Inc. Saga is the next great post-apocalyptic struggle between liberty and tyranny. Loyalties are shifting, and alliances are fracturing. Political bickering threatens to undo the “utopian” corporate state. Can differences be set aside, or will the “terrorists” succeed in boiling the ocean as they move closer to implementing a new world order?

From the Publisher
When corporations became countries, loyalty became mandatory and freedom became illegal.
A Future Utopia?
In the perfect world, no one is poor, no one is sick, and no one is afraid. The cities are clean, the streets are quiet, and every citizen has a place and a purpose. But perfection comes with a price. Every choice is monitored. Every word is recorded. And those who don’t fit the system simply disappear. In a utopia where everything is controlled, freedom may be the most dangerous idea of all.
Corporate Control
In a world where corporations replaced governments, citizenship comes with an employee ID. Housing is company housing. Healthcare is company policy. Laws are written in boardrooms, and loyalty is measured in performance reviews. Promotions bring power. Termination means exile. When profit becomes policy and shareholders become rulers, one question remains: what happens when someone refuses to work for the world that owns them?
Thirst for Power
Liberteum began as a rumor, then a movement, then a threat. In a world run by corporations where every citizen is an employee and every nation a subsidiary, Liberteum speaks a dangerous word: freedom. They sabotage data, expose secrets, and disrupt the system that controls everything. To the corporate councils, they are terrorists. To the people, they are hope. And hope is the most dangerous threat of all.
Last Chance for Freedom
The world is no longer ruled by nations, but by corporations, contracts, and compliance. Freedom has been replaced by employment, and liberty by performance reviews. But in the shadows, a movement called Liberteum is growing. They don’t want profit. They don’t want power. They want freedom back. If Liberteum fails, humanity will live forever as employees. If they succeed, the world will never be the same again.

Political dramas
Michael Bennit is a former Green Beret turned history teacher who strives to inspire his students. After losing a bet to one of his classes, he is forced to do something he never imagined: run for political office. He is a man of integrity and courage navigating a world that sees little of either. He's the perfect exemplar of what we should all demand from our leaders, and with a likable group of young staffers and close allies, they are a group you will root for until the very end.
Political thrillers
Journalism in America is dead, but Tierra Campos is on a mission to reshape how news is presented. When a teenage gun control advocate is implicated in the school shooting that made him famous, she becomes a household name...and a target.
Tierra and Victoria are everything we want as modern heroines - intelligent, dedicated, confident, and honest. In a society where we see despicable behavior all around us, they bring with them a glimmer of hope that there are still good people out there.
Political thrillers
Eugene "Boston" Hollinger discovered that he has a gift - a traumatic brain injury has left him with the ability to tap into people's minds and see their memories. For Boston, it's an inconvenience he must learn to live with until he realizes that he can use it to uncover a dangerous mole selling our national secrets to the highest bidder. Boston is the closest thing to a real-life superhero that exists. Imagine what you would do if you could close your eyes and experience another person's most traumatic memories. What could you uncover? What will Boston find along his journey?
Holiday romance
Politics is the ultimate divisive subject in the modern age. It destroys families and relationships. Can two people with different political ideologies ever find happiness together? The Santa Trilogy is a three-novel set that will explores the true magic and meaning of Christmas. A political thriller meets a romance novel where readers find the answer to an age-old question: which is more powerful, love or politics?
