Summary
Visible in the
night sky the Argus Station, its twin smelting plants like
glowing eyes, looks down on nightmare Earth. From Argus the
Committee keep an oppressive control: citizens are watched by
cams systems and political officers, it's a world inhabited by
shepherds, reader guns, razor birds and the brutal Inspectorate
with its white tiled cells and pain inducers. Soon the
Committee will have the power to edit human minds, but not yet,
twelve billion human being need to die before Earth can be
stabilized, but by turning large portions of Earth into
concentration camps this is achievable, especially when the
Argus satellite laser network comes fully online...This is the
world Alan Saul wakes to in his crate on the conveyor to the
Calais incinerator. How he got there he does not know, but he
does remember the pain and the face of his interrogator.
Informed by Janus, through the hardware implanted in his skull,
about the world as it is now Saul is determined to destroy it,
just as soon as he has found out who he was, and killed his
interrogator...
