The woman with no name and her AI sidekick find themselves at the center of a sinister conspiracy. The embargo protecting the planet from the ravages of technology has been corrupted, but the smugglers and poachers exploiting its cavities are mere symptoms of the disease. Can the Athena-class Marshal unravel the shadowy strings that bind them all together? Or will humanity pay the ultimate price?
It’s like Mad Max and Vampire Hunter D with a touch of The MatrixWild animal hybrids, mech suits of armor, an oppressive government, tragic heroes and sympathetic villains; this dystopian adventure takes you to the edge of civilization in a universe that has been fully colonized. Manifest destiny has spread the human race thin, but Earth is a hermetically sealed bubble designed to restore Natural Order. The garden planet’s remaining megacities have grown stagnant, but the wilderness only grows more active, and a mysterious monster is roaming the southlands.
“Brutal, oppressive and delightfully intriguing”
“Somehow futuristic and nostalgic at the same time”
“Couldn’t put it down”
The embargo prohibits massive amounts of history from being published on Old Earth simulations, but the Frontier Forever organization is dedicated to exposing the nature of reality. Although Under the Shadow of the Plateau starts with the birth of the second Athena-class Marshal, it is the first book in this rapidly expanding “science fiction” series. There’s a lot going on, but there’s never been a better time to start reading, so immerse yourself in this terrifying future today!
