Ed Rodriguez is an independent creator fascinated by the psychology of survival and human adaptability in extreme circumstances. "No Horizon: Survivor's Edge" marks his debut prose work, a collection examining the brutal calculus of existence in a world where civilization has collapsed and conventional morality has given way to the raw imperatives of survival. Drawing from his interest in tactical decision-making and the psychological impact of trauma, Ed crafted a protagonist whose journey reflects the often uncomfortable realities faced by survivors in truly desperate situations. Rather than following traditional heroic narratives, his writing deliberately explores the morally ambiguous choices and emotional detachment that become necessary tools in a broken world. Outside of writing, Ed created Animus: The Draft-Building Card Game, where his attention to strategic depth and player psychology found expression in tabletop gaming. This combination of narrative storytelling and game design sensibilities informs his approach to character development and the cause-and-effect mechanics that drive the stories in "No Horizon." The book emerged from Ed's contemplation of a simple question: Who do we become when everything familiar is stripped away? The answer, explored through interconnected but standalone stories, reveals his belief that survival isn't about extraordinary strength but extraordinary persistence and that the line between survival and savagery remains razor-thin even as hope recedes beyond the visible horizon. Through "No Horizon: Survivor's Edge," Ed invites readers to confront uncomfortable truths about human nature while experiencing the tense, tactical reality of existence after societal collapse. With its deliberate repetition and clinical assessments, his writing style mirrors the psychological reality of extreme conditions where language and thought contract to their essential components.
