All that remains in the wake of the North American conflict are safe zones scattered throughout the badlands. Kael and Zyla struggle to survive against impossible odds and a social system bent on their destruction.
Their only hope, if Kael is to save his sister from a fate far worse than death, is to escape the small village of Rysa and venture into the badlands. But hope fades when he is arrested.
He now stands face to face with his own fate and has been sentenced to fight in the arena where the only outcome is death. His worst fears are realized when treachery is revealed at the entrance to forever and there is nothing he can do.
If they are to survive each will have to be stronger than they ever thought possible.
