Description
About the Book
After a zombie apocalypse, corporations run by vampires create heavily guarded city-states to preserve the human race - as a subjugated food supply.
Book Synopsis
During the 21st century a new pandemic explodes out of the Siberian mountains. Unstoppable, the virus breaks every containment line, defies every treatment. The infected do not die. They change. They are called blights. Others might name them zombies.
The melior, shadow-brokers who have been amassing power and wealth for centuries, act to preserve their food-supply: humans. Millions fleeing the blight flock to the newly established, melior-run citadels, never stopping to ask at what price there safety would come.
Generations later, humans and melior alike struggle under the weight of corporate rule. For Callan, the "farm" is all he and his community have ever known. Yet beyond the walls that hem them in, he's sure a truth lurks with bloody consequences. For the covert operative Ling, the Sydney citadel is the perfect location to weave the demise of the corporation and plot revenge for a centuries old bereavement. For Marie, after decades of watching her discoveries abused, an important breakthrough foretells the downfall of the melior's carefully constructed world.
Together, the unlikely three may have a chance to reshape history. All they need to do is the impossible.
