The world we knew is no more.Virtually stripped of humanity, the crumbling shell of society struggles against mutation and death as the deadly Wormwood virus continues to lay waste to most life on Earth.Hoping to stave off extinction, humanity sought out refuge among the stars. Forming colonies that thrived for a time, the resources needed to maintain their populations have dwindled and any hope of returning to Earth has been made impossible by the powerful Ellium - holders of the only cure to the Wormwood.Faced with the ever looming threat of extinction, the lone group of peace keepers known as the Templars struggle to keep the embers of humanity from burning out, but time is not on their side. In the end, the only hope left to save humanity may be in the hands of a young girl named Alhana, but only if the Ellium doesn't kill her first.*** This edition is in full color, creating an alternative to the black & white edition. The "noir" line of books are smaller to download as ebooks and far cheaper to purchase in print but lack the brilliant color of this edition. ***
