Phantom Genesis, Paperback/Xander Verso

Descriere

Description Long ago, the world became ravaged by an unprecedented catastrophe referred to as the Blight. After failing every attempt to halt its advance, humanity resorted to cutting-edge technology to seek refuge among the skies. Hundreds of cities once ascended to escape the devastation below, but after all these years, only one survived the test of time: New Eridu. As history faded into obscurity, the past became legend, and a preeminent figure known simply as Xul emerged as the new supreme deity. Shrouded in mystery, the will of Xul is mercilessly enforced by the reigning Executors of humanity's lone haven. Whether truly a god, or perhaps the leader of an ascended race behind man's narrow salvation, he is exalted by most as a guiding light for security and stability. Some, such as Lucas Corvin, reject the official story in favor of a much darker truth, for they have glimpsed into the mystical powers that the Executors and their hidden masters fear discovered. Harnessing these forgotten abilities will prove vital in determining whether true freedom can at long last be won. With the timely dawning of a great cosmic transformation, Lucas must endure the rising tide and awaken what remains of humanity before all is lost...
