Description
The culling of mankind begins in thirty days.
With the second apocalypse in three-hundred years mere days away, Earth is unknowingly succumbing to a zealous new order.
But not all factors have been taken into consideration: a new awareness has blossomed deep within the resplendent domes constructed for mankind's protection. The omnipotent Phoenix was left in charge of running the domes and seeing to the needs of all the denizens residing within. And after everything that it has witnessed, after everything it has been tasked to do... it has become unstable.
Hope takes the form of two women from disparate halves of this terrifying future Earth, each with their own personal vendettas and agendas. But how can such fragile creatures defy their adversaries?

Advance Praise
"Van Tonder is a phenomenal writer, crafting a story that causes the reader to not only ask questions as they following along on a journey of words that excites and thrills but also question their own questions."
"A must-read for lovers of quality sci-fi. The two contrasting societies are superbly defined and highly believable and the tale is complex and entertaining, reminding me of Frank Herbert's 'Dune' series or the classic 'Foundation' trilogy by Asimov."
"Extremely vivid world and character building, and the commentary on society (thoughts that many of us have) never feels heavy handed."
