One hundred years after the end of the last Great War, humanity is still recovering from a long span of brutal, escalating warfare; first chemical and biological, then nuclear, and finally, genetic. After barely surviving the last Great War - a war in which genetically modified animals and insects were used as the primary weapons - mankind has resorted to outlawing technology of any kind. The very planet is on the brink as the catastrophic climate and environmental changes that humans have wrought still threaten the existence of all life. This unique collection of stories-within-stories looks at life after The End, and what it might mean for the world we've created. In "The Long Journey," we follow along with a bounty hunter and her gen-a-wolf partner as they escort their prisoner back for judgment. "After the Tower Fell" pays homage to one of this century's greatest fiction writers, while "No Good Deed Goes Unpunished" is a hard look at the disparity between the rich and the poor. "World Series" takes a humorous look at a secret sport taking place under our very noses, and "Ula's Turn" examines the true price of civilization.
