    About this ebook

    In the last city on Earth, far below the radioactive wasteland, the survivors of the war have constructed a bottomless urban cityscape filled with layers of skyscrapers and mazes of overlapping roadways. Automaton servants fulfill the desires of every citizen. They clean their homes, police their streets, and share their beds. Bio-engineered organs replace the failures of human nature, keeping people alive indefinitely. Genetically modified pets entertain their children. Food is manufactured to the highest quality imaginable. Every wish is granted.

    As long as they can afford it.

    Those unable to pay the exorbitant prices set by the rich, die in the streets. Their lack of technology disconnects them. Their lack of medical care weakens them. Their lack of food starves them. And when they turn to crime in order to survive, they're sentenced to death.

    Hope no longer exists.

    But against seemingly impossible odds, an unlikely hero will stand up against an establishment built upon suffering and corrupted by wealth. He will remind the poor, the weak, and the destitute that they should never give up and they should never surrender, because in the city of Nottingham, the war is just beginning.

    Jaron Lee Knuth

    Jaron Lee Knuth was born in western Wisconsin in 1978. Suffering from multiple illnesses as a young child, he was forced to find an escape from his bedridden existence through the storytelling of any media he could find. Science fiction and fantasy novels, television programs, films, video games, and comic books all provided him with infinite worlds for his imagination to explore. Now he spends his days creating stories and worlds in the hope that others might find somewhere to escape as well. He would love to reply to any questions or comments you may have for him at jaronleeknuth@gmail.com
