Book Overview

Global war devastated the environment, a zombie-like plague wiped out much of humanity, and civilization as we once understood it came to a standstill. But that was a thousand years ago, and the world is now a very different place.

Conflict between city states is constant, superstition is rife, and machine relics, mutant creatures and resurrected prehistoric beasts trouble the land. Watching over all are the silent Dreaming Cities. Homes of the angels, bastion outposts of heaven on Earth. Or so the church claims. Very few go in, and nobody ever comes out.

Until now...

"Haley serves up equal helpings of horror, fantasy adventure, and SF in this stark, intriguing story of a ruined Earth where the remaining humans are determined to survive." - Publishers Weekly

"Entertaining and exciting... If grim-dark is your thing, then this is a great read for you." - Bull-Spec

An excellent experience of author’s work outside of his Warhammer 40k novels.

A very fast, and engaging read of an era a millennia after the post-industrial worldwide collapse with focus on the area between Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Ohio. It’s reminiscent of the Archeo-futuristic writings of the late Guillaume Faye, and retro futurism posited by William S. Lind in Victoria if industrial societies fail to make a comeback on a large scale after catabolic collapse.
