Opis

The story is set in the 2030s. As adolescents, the characters follow different paths, their circumstances and opportunities much different from one another's. It is an era of promiscuity, of dreams and hopes, of struggles, of secret combinations, and of those who seek dominance and power over others. Their lives develop in different ways until as adults their paths begin to cross, leading them to a small village in the Andean mountain region of Colombia.
This is where they find themselves when war has broken out between the major powers of the earth, and then a natural process of nuclear devastation begins to occur, which is rapidly destroying all forms of life and vegetation upon the planet. Covert operatives as well as villains and heroes make an interesting group of characters who unwittingly become involved and are brought together.
Starships are involved as well as extraterrestrial beings and other planets as well as nuclear devastation, and all of such become believable only to those who are willing to stretch their imaginations forward to a time not too far distant from our own.
