About This Book

A naval lieutenant raised in an isolationist Western Hemisphere recounts his voyage beyond the long-enforced maritime limits into an Eastern Hemisphere that has fragmented and regressed two centuries after transoceanic contact ceased. He moves through ruined cities, contested regions, and wild countryside, becoming entangled in local power struggles, rescue missions, and hazardous travels among strange peoples and customs. The narrative combines episodic adventure and speculative geopolitics while reflecting on the collapse and tentative recovery of social order, portraying both violence and the first efforts to alleviate suffering and reestablish links between separated worlds.
