Three hundred years ago, humanity was nearly wiped out by a natural disaster. Now, it threatens to destroy itself. By the year 2409, the State has been rotting from the inside for centuries. Its destruction seems inevitable. But there is a chance for salvation-if it ends up in the right hands. The greatest scientific achievement in history will be used, either as an instrument of annihilation or the means of deliverance. The outcome hinges on the person who wields its power. In his first novel, Logan - the foremost expert in State-era history - uses his expertise to breathe life back into the names and dates of the era between the fall of the State and the rise of the Union.
