Integra Series
Integra is the forerunner of a popular series of books
related to the Integra theme. Others in
the series include a wide range of subjects:
Integra: Ken Robson, an environmental
scientist, sailing alone across the Atlantic, sails into an unexpected
storm. A day into the storm, he receives
a faint Mayday call from a yacht sinking some distance away. He hastens to the rescue, arriving in time to
rescue Erika, the beautiful young wife of the owner of Integra Corporation, a
very large privately-owned corporation in Germany, but her husband is lost with
their sinking yacht in the storm. Ken
returns with Erika to Germany, where they are both plunged into a fight to save
the company from the results of the criminal actions of a rogue Manager.
The book describes in detail the horrifying problems of
rescue in heavy weather at sea in a small boat with real knowledge, and with a
number of aspects of business and places which the author knows and describes
with insight and clarity.

is working with Ann Markgraaff to develop an affordable and palatable food for
the poverty-stricken of the world, but they are waylaid by Joseph Mbonani, a
ruthless man who exploits his position of power and influence with banks and Government
to demand a majority shareholding in their company, threatening various actions
by the Revenue authorities and the Police if they fail to comply, as well as a
refusal by the banks to provide funding.
Reluctant to accede to this demand, they turn to Integra Corporation to
assist them to realize their business plan.
Believing that they have a moral obligation to act on their knowledge,
they turn their attention to the companies where Mbonani’s blackmail has

is scanning the night sky when he spots an anomaly. He applies all his knowledge to find a reason
for it, and discovers a large clump of very large asteroids. Concerned, he reports his findings to the
authorities, only to find resistance to the notion that such a discovery by an
amateur could be of value. He enlists
the aid of a young astronomer, and they complete the calculations, to find that
the Earth is destined to collide with multiple large objects, each bigger than
the object that terminated the rule of the dinosaurs sixty-five million years
ago.
In the face of active opposition by powerful interest
groups, they manage to escape to Europe, where they enlist the aid of Integra,
a privately-owned corporation with the ability to gain the attention of the
major world Governments. Together they
race against time to put together an organization with the capability to ward

In a review of Kidnap, Ward
Orndoff wrote: “I
just finished reading Kidnap, and I wanted to say that I thoroughly enjoyed
it. I've read all your books available
to date on Kindle at Amazon.com, and without exception have found them to be
highly entertaining. The premises are
sound, the story lines are intriguing, and it's satisfying to see good people
overcome challenges through hard work. [..]
It's an added bonus to see mention of areas I know (I live
in Jupiter, Florida).
In short, another excellent story; I'm looking forward to
your next book!”

Extinction Event Series
The initial books in this series describe the events that lead
to the destruction of the world as we know it.
These are Extinction Event, Chain Reaction, Survival! and Escape. Subsequent books take the stories of the
people you have come to know further in a best-selling saga of the world
Extinction
Event: The time is now.
John Carter has sold his IT business, and is relaxing at
Yellowstone to consider what he should do now, when he meets Helen Lindstrom, a
young scientist who is studying the volcanic magma cauldron underlying
Yellowstone to complete a Ph. D thesis. They
realize that humanity is facing an extinction event, an event that has the
potential to destroy the entire human species.
Their attempt to warn the officials is fruitless in the face
of political thinking. John and Helen
decide that their only alternative is to find a place where they can
survive. They do this in Montagu, an
idyllic location in the Western Cape Province of South Africa, and they set
about making the preparations that will enable them, and a select few others,
to survive the worst catastrophe ever faced by humanity.
The threat is present and real. The explosion of the volcano at Yellowstone
could happen tomorrow. The story of how
Helen and John build a survival team and prepare to be tested is one that will
make you think: ‘How would you react if
you knew that the end of the world will happen next month?’

Chain
Reaction: Ron Carstens arrives at his vacation hotel in
Paradise Island, Bahamas, and meets Jane Smith, the former roommate of Helen
Lindstrom. Her room booking, won as a
prize in a TV contest, has been bumped as a result of overbooking of the
hotel. As a struggling doctoral student,
she cannot afford to rent another room.
On an impulse, he offers her a berth in a rental boat he will be using
to cruise the islands. She accepts, and
their week on the boat together leads to a strong attraction between them. After their return to the US, Jane investigates
further, and obtains a copy of Helen’s Ph. D dissertation, still under
consideration by the University. They
decide to extend a planned test cruise of Ron’s new catamaran, and are sailing
west from Hawaii when the eruption occurs, creating a huge rockslide, followed
by a gigantic tsunami. As a result of
their knowledge of what to expect, they are able to survive the waves, and to
rescue a small family whose boat was pitchpoled by the waves. They sail on, seeking any surviving remnants
of civilization. It takes them three
years of trial to join up with Helen and John Carter’s group.

Survival: The huge volcano under Yellowstone National
Park explodes destroying humanity in the northern hemisphere, and stranding six
American and four German tourists in Kigali, Ruanda, with no prospect of
reaching their homes. They team up with
a Gorilla Tour guide and his family in a hazardous and terrifying journey
overland through some of the war zones of Africa, hoping to find the one place
on earth where civilization has retained a foothold – Montagu, in the Western
Cape, South Africa.
This is a story of adventure, danger, barbarity and
brutality, and of the determination of a small group to retain the values that
make them what they are, as the northern hemisphere collapses under the
onslaught of a new Ice Age, and the southern countries slide into chaos and
collapse. It is a remarkable companion
to Extinction
Event, Nicole Stuart’s bestselling novel of the end of the world as
we know it, a book that has drawn praise for its insights into what is possible
in the most extreme circumstances imaginable.
This is not a disaster story – it is a tale of optimism and hope, of the
triumph of the human spirit!
In a review of Survival,
Mountain Man wrote: ‘The story of the escape from Kigali in
Rwanda includes a small group of total strangers from diverse backgrounds. Yet
they band together and work as a team to survive. Each learns new skills and
strengths along the way. I found a wonderful map of Africa on the internet and
followed their travels, learning new things about Africa as I went. As an
American, I am guilty of ignoring the African continent and their people which
is well explained in this book. I now realize the African people are a product
of their culture and the corrupt politicians of their own race. Ms. Stuart
correctly illustrates how government works. Not a pretty sight!!! The rapid
descent into total chaos is predictable and frightening. Yes, a big percentage
of people do not understand that cooperation will enhance survival. Instead
they rob and torture and end of dying of starvation and disease. I enjoyed the
characters and the scenery. I highly recommend reading this book and the entire
series.’

Escape. The volcano under Yellowstone has
exploded. The world as we know it is in
the process of collapse and a small community near Sydney, Australia has to
face the reality that the new conditions bring.
The East Coast cities have been destroyed by a giant tsunami set off by
the explosion, and they are alone, facing an extreme change in weather
conditions, roaming bands of criminals, and starvation! Their struggle to survive and to build a
viable civilization at last leads them to join with Helen Lindstrom and John
Carter’s group in Montagu, South Africa.
Escape runs parallel with Extinction Event, Chain
Reaction and Survival, and prepares the
ground for their successor, Renewal. It is an exciting tale of a world recovery
from an event that came close to bringing humanity to its knees!
In a review of Escape,
Mountain Man wrote: ‘This is one of the [Extinction event]
series and deals with the survival and eventual escape from Australia. After
Yellowstone explodes, the world has disintegrated into pockets of survivors and
bands of thugs. The survivors in Australia are led by the man who sold his farm
to Helen and John. He was warned at the time but chose to resettle in Australia
to be near his children and their families. He knows the theories Helen and
John have about Montagu, South Africa being one of the few (perhaps only) places
to survive. This is the story of the trip there of almost 1000 people. My only
criticism is the ease of the whole adventure. Very thought provoking.’

Renewal! Following on the best-selling Extinction Event series, Renewal!
continues the stories of Chain Reaction, Survival and Escape,
to tell of how the survivors of the explosion of the volcano under Yellowstone
National Park rebuild their society, to help the few remaining outposts of life
around the world and to build the basis of a new civilization. This is an ‘end of the world as we know it’ story
with hope and belief in the human spirit in the face of the worst disaster to
hit humanity.
Renewal! is
based on fact. The volcano exists. The last time it exploded, it brought an
almost complete collapse of animal life throughout the world. It will explode again! Will you have the knowledge needed to
survive?

Alive! Series
The Alive! series tells of the near-miraculous escape of
small groups of people when a natural disaster is compounded by scientific
arrogance, and of their battle to bring back science and development in a world
that threatens to revert to the Stone Age.
Alive! Alan Rogers
is escaping the scene of his failed marriage.
He travels to Cape Town to set up a Management Consultancy business, and
stops in at Montagu, where he meets Johan, the owner of a winery, who invites
him to undertake some work as Consultant.
Alan meets Johan’s sister, a magnetic scientist, and she asks him to
help her take a photograph inside one of the winery’s new steel tanks. While they are inside the tank, they are
locked in by Karin’s insanely jealous husband.
The event is fortuitous, as a huge magnetic storm sweeps the Earth and
destroys all unprotected living organisms.
They emerge to a world dramatically changed, with all power gone, all
animal and insect life apparently expunged.
They set about rescuing what they can, and building a new existence for
themselves. They are able to start
restocking the Earth with animal, fish and insect life, as well as starting the
nucleus of a new civilization.
The scenario represents a real risk to the Earth, presently
existing and able to materialize at any time, and the story raises many
questions, not the least important being “What would you do if an unavoidable
natural event were to destroy most of life on Earth?”

God’s Battalion: The most powerful coronal mass ejection since
the one that destroyed most of life on Earth millions of years ago, generated
by a massive storm on the sun, has battered Earth, breaking through the defense
of the magnetosphere and killing almost every form of animate life on the
planet. A few people have managed to
survive, building small groups in scattered places to regroup and begin again
the slow process of populating the Earth.
One such group, headed by a crazed religious fanatic, seeks to impose a
new theocracy, threatening the three tiny fledgling science-based communities
with a new Crusade. They can only save
their growing democracies by developing the science that we know today to a new
height, to develop theories that promise to take Humanity to the stars. In this exciting sequel to the bestselling Alive! and Particle
Extinction, Nicole Stuart takes the story of Humanity to new heights.

Before the Beginning: - Betelgeuse, a wandering gas giant star,
is heading towards the planet Kiron, the home of humanity, at thirty kilometers
per second. The destruction of the
planet is inevitable, but the prediction of the scientists that extinction will
happen within twenty-five thousand years does not stimulate the desire of the
people to make the developments that will be essential to save the race. The need to ensure the safety of their
distant descendants has much less allure than a pleasant life today. A group of fanatics takes advantage of the
prediction to gain a position of power, and they target the scientists,
claiming that they are responsible for the danger. Although they are forced to continue their
work under cover, the scientists achieve an ability to transport nearly half a
million people to a large number of planets, hoping that at least one planetary
colony will survive to continue the race.
The last transport
takes a small group of colonists to Ga-In, where they set about rebuilding the
civilization. Unfortunately, the
developments on the planet make it possible for a new group of fanatics to
rebuild the organization that came close to destroying the project, as they use
their knowledge of the past to rise to power and wealth. Once again, the scientists are forced to go
underground before they can achieve their objective of reuniting their race.
This book is a
fascinating prequel to the bestselling Alive! series.
It tells the story of how humanity escaped certain annihilation, and
rebuilt the knowledge that would take them to the universe.

planet. This time, the government is corrupt, the President has been
concentrating on growing his wealth, and the scientists have been suppressed by
the clerical dogma, making it unlikely that the civilization will survive this
cycle of cold. Cora and Savi are commissioned to provide a report on some
remarkable structures that have been discovered by a mining company. To
disclose their belief that these structures were the work of humans, completed
before the theologically-determined date of creation of the planet, could result
in imprisonment, and the discovery that they serve as an arrival point for
travelers from the distant past, seeking a safe haven from a previous ice age,
increases that risk. How can these scientists use the advanced technology from
the past to save the future of their people?

President with a greed for power, split the planet-wide nation into two,
fabricating a threat of invasion from Norland to hold onto power long after her
term expired. The country endured twenty years of her despotic rule, with the
economy sliding ever further into ruin and scientific development stultifying,
until a small group of scientists made the breakthrough that would allow the
Commanding Officer of the military to use the threat made possible by the
development to bring about the downfall of the corrupt government. However, he
failed to reckon with the determination of Photea and her Ministers to hang
onto their positions of power and privilege.

Predictions: Sally is a writer, and her books enjoy an
excellent reception, attracting a wide following. She receives impulses for the
books from many sources: the chance remark of a lecturer, the turning over of a
phrase spoken by one of her characters, even the headline in a newspaper. Her
friend, Jan, notices that many of Sally’s books appear to parallel events in
real life, but she writes that off as coincidence. However, she can no longer
do that when she sees a complex scientific paper, written by Jan’s fiancé, an
advanced scientist in the field of particle physics, and realizes that one of
the characters in a book Sally had written several months ago had presented
that document as an exposition of the nature of the particle universe. Sally’s
careful discussions with the scientist, based on an intuitive knowledge of his
work gained from her books, assist him to find the path to resolving the
problems he encounters in building a matter transporter, and he finally makes
the breakthrough, following a tip from one of the characters in Sally’s books,
to establishing communication with scientists in another dimension.
The achievement brings an invitation from the Universal
Community to the people of Earth to join the Community, but the President of
the United States cannot fit that into his worldview, and he takes action to
suppress the new science. Sally, Jan and their new friends must act to save the
scientist and to bring the United States into the Universal Community.

Multiverse: Sally and Jan have realized an ambition that had been beyond their
wildest dreams only a year ago. As a writer, Sally has found that her books
were more than simply bestselling novels – they assisted some brilliant scientists
to break through perceived barriers, and open the planets of different
universes to exploration. They find opportunities and solve problems, and each
new planet, each new challenge, helps the two young women to inch their way
towards a realization of their own full potential, helped by Sally’s mysterious
mental connection with other writers.
Multiverse takes the story that started in
Predictions towards a future of diverse cultures, unusual people and new
sciences. The aim of Sally and Jan, of bringing the advantages and benefits of
the Universal Community to all civilized worlds throughout numerous universes
helps both of them to understand themselves and the multiverse which has become
their home.
A review in Readers eBooks Club said: “I love reading Nicole Stuart’s books. They are
informative and thought-provoking. She has an ability to predict the future in
a credible way. I have, several times, seen that what she wrote in one of her
books, sometimes several years earlier, proved to be incredibly accurate. Whether
she is simply very good at reading the signs that others miss, or she actually
has an insight into the future is not clear to me, although I think that both
explanations are at least partially valid.
Although Nicole Stuart’s books are not written for youngsters, they
could certainly be useful reading for young men and particularly young girls, providing
wholesome and informative encouragement, a wide range of facts and information
in fields that are sure to become enormously important in years to come, and
the credible assurance that the application of hard work, intelligent
forethought and good principles will carry one through.
I strongly recommend this book to anyone with an open mind.”

Flood Series
The Flood Series explores the destruction of the world
economy by a terrorist act that goes badly wrong, and how the survivors,
ordinary people in extraordinary circumstances, work to recover the civilization
they knew, in a world with a population only a tiny fraction of what it had
been.
Flood: When the terrorists set off the rockslide on
La Palma Island in the Canary Islands, they create a tsunami of gigantic
proportions. The wave races across the Atlantic,
giving the authorities in the United States six hours to evacuate everyone
within a hundred miles of the coast. The
other countries on the Atlantic coast suffer the same devastation, but now an
additional factor comes into play – the smashing of five hundred trillion tons
of rock into the fragile floor of the Atlantic at a thousand kilometers per
hour sends a shockwave through the molten magma that sets off volcanoes,
earthquakes and tsunamis around the world.
The terrorist plot has consequences far beyond those envisaged by its
planners!
The remnants of the United States Military takes revenge,
but the eradication of all those who supported terrorism is just the first step
in the survival of the civilized nations of the northern hemisphere. Those few who survive must integrate into
other societies that are themselves disintegrating under the stresses of the
world economic meltdown.
In this enthralling tale of a world catastrophe, Nicole
Stuart describes the large events that flow from a comparatively small
beginning, and how some people grasp the opportunity to rebuild the lives of
their people.

one of the very few centers of civilization remaining, only to find that the
arrival of the President of the United States, who has escaped from the ruins
of his county and brought with him a desire to dominate this new world, poses a
new and different threat. They must use the connections they have built in
their new lives to counter the threat, and to bring the enemies onto their
side.

The Writer: Roger wants to write, more than anything in
his life, but his characters run out of steam, his plots become boring. Frustrated, he seeks new inspiration eight
thousand miles away, in Mossel Bay, and finds the perfect character in a
photograph he takes on his first day there.
The character develops as he writes about writing the story, until the
beautiful woman he has chosen to carry the story becomes real to him, in his
story and in the story he writes about the story. Then the story is complete. Where to now?
In a review of The Writer,
James Priest of Minneapolis wrote:
‘A beautifully crafted book about a book. The only thing which could
possibly improve it would be another hundred or so pages. However as the main character,
Roger, stated, "His story was finished. “No,” he thought. “Not Finished.
Complete." This is a complete work which is a joy to read.
If you want to have even more fun with the book, Google Maps
will take you to Mossel Bay where you can see and visit all the places the
author describes. You can literally spend hours strolling along the streets and
beaches. The street level coverage of the entire town is fantastic. If your
view of South Africa was formed during the era of Apartheid and the Soweto Uprising
you may come away with a totally different opinion.
I can think of no greater compliment to pay a writer than to
say, "You have changed my view of the world." ‘

Decisions:
The blonde woman has stepped from the pages of his book, as vibrantly
alive, as beautiful as Roger had described her. It was the culmination of a
dream: his first book was about to be published, and the woman, whose photo had
been the driving force behind that book, was real, not a figment of his
imagination. Now Roger faced the problem that she was wealthy, beyond his
wildest dreams, and successful in business, while he had yet to negotiate the
contract with his publisher, and he could not view the future publication of
his first book as forming a successful career. He needed to do something, but
what would be enough to convince this woman, and himself, that he was the man
she would want?
As it turns out, the world has a plan in mind for Roger and Natalya.
Unfortunately, that plan requires them to bring down three violent and unscrupulous
criminals with good political connections, while Roger and Natalya have only
their wits, their close friends and Roger’s next book.
