"Left for Dead" by Hunter Scott follows the gripping tale of a young man named Zach who finds himself stranded in the wilderness after a disastrous camping trip. As he struggles to survive against the elements, he grapples with his own inner demons and the weight of his past. With limited resources and dwindling hope, Zach must rely on his instincts and resilience to overcome physical and psychological challenges. Along the way, he encounters unexpected allies and harsh realities, ultimately leading to a profound transformation and a journey of self-discovery that tests his limits and reshapes his perception of survival.

Peter Nelson is a screenwriter who lives in Los Angeles, California, with his wife, Diane, and their two sons, Charlie and Christopher. Herbert's Wormhole was Peter's First children's book. He wrote it without ever having met an actual alien or traveling through time, which made it a bit more challenging, but just as fun. Rohitash Rao was born in an exotic, faraway land called Hyderabad, India. He then grew up in another exotic, faraway land called Rancho Cucamonga, California. He now lives in a magical city on an island called Manhattan, where he works as an animator and director. Herbert's Wormhole was Rao's First children's book, much of which he illustrated while sitting on a broken stool in his apartment.
