What if, in the not-too-distant future, the world’s wealthiest and most powerful man learned that civilization was virtually certain to collapse within the next 20 years? And what if that man built a great new city called Olympus as part of a mighty effort to change the course of history? Yet what if the best efforts by the people of Olympus proved futile in the end? What if civilization indeed fell, leaving only the remnants of Olympus’s own society to carry the flickering torch of a once proud civilization? What then? Beyond Olympus imagines the answers to those questions in a cautionary tale that is thoughtful, exciting and epic in scale. It is a story that might have seemed farfetched just a few years ago, yet perhaps might seem uncomfortably plausible today…
