In the late 21st century, practical nanotech became a reality. Then it mutated and got loose. Or it was stolen and used as a weapon. No one is really sure, since by the time it was brought under control virtually all of Earth's infrastructure had been destroyed. That was five generations ago. Humanity still survives, the crippled biosphere supported by protective nanotech that shields it from the pervasive presence of the "eaters". With advanced tech impossible to keep protected and operational, people have turned inward, Shaping themselves with nanotech to become the tools they can no longer manufacture. Meanwhile, the eaters have also evolved, clustering together into vast consuming intelligences. Can the Age of Ruin be turned into the Age of Redemption, or will the fifth generation after the Fall of Man be his last?

FullStarFullStarFullStarFullStarFullStar Darkest, Bleakest Post-Apocalypse EVER!
Reviewer: Grimcleaver

Some people think a rusted schoolbus riveted with scrapmetal and a driver in spray painted hockey gear with a mohawk is gritty post-apocalypse. Okay, so did I...until I read this.

This is a thing of beauty, the most unrepentantly awful, bleak portrayal of a post-apocalyptic world I have ever seen.

What's better--this guy knows his stuff. It's smart science fiction, spot on and totally believable (even though it deals with some weird weird stuff) from the total annihilation caused by a breed of nanotech run amok, called "Eaters", to the neolithic tribal societies that have immerged from the ruins, surviving only because of their own defensive nanotech and by mastering the only technology left in the world--the kind formed from one's own flesh.

This setting is great. It's fresh and intriguing and just horribly oppressive and grim. You know I love that!
