Lund has written the First World series as a six part story.  First Signal, First Report, First Launch, First World: Revelation, Second Exodus and The Genesis. First Signal completed principal photography in July 2019 for a 2021 release.

To compliment the story, Lund wrote the novella First World: Covenant (Amazon) as the first ebook of the series.  Covenant takes place after First Signal and before First Launch.
