Ranked #1 in Science Fiction > Adventure on the Amazon Kindle Store, Jan. 5 and 12, 2013, and #1 in Science Fiction > Alternative History Jan 12, 2013 The stunning dystopian fantasy debut! What reviewers are saying: "A world that oozes dystopian desperation." "Running Man meets The Matrix." "Wow! Isaac Hooke can write!" The cityscape looked almost unreal at this height. It was like Hoodwink stood again beside the vendor with her miniature replicas and maps of the city. True, this was far more detailed than any map he'd ever seen, but the illusion of perception made the city seem much closer, like he could just reach out and pick it up. But then his eyes focused on the whirling snow closer at hand, those flakes descending from the heights like an endless vortex of doom, and the reality of what he saw hit him. He felt suddenly nauseous, and dizzy. The duffel bag abruptly slid down his shoulder. He let go of the rope with that hand and caught the bag in the crook of his forearm. Two bundles of salted meat tumbled free and spun away on the breeze as the upper winds picked them up. Entranced, he watched the bundles fall. The fingers that gripped the rope began to slip... Synopsis: 3740 A.D. The ice age has immobilized the world. Colossal walls seal off the cities from the uninhabitable Outside. Humanlike entities called "gols" run society, and force the humans to wear collars that block the innate powers mankind has evolved. One man rises up... "Twists and turns, super-human feats, and close-calls abound -- everything a good science-fantasy story should have." "Kept me up until 2 a.m. because I couldn't put it down." Join Hoodwink in this tale of dystopian fantasy and experience the thrill-ride. Pick up the paperback or download the Kindle edition today!
