In a world where technology surpassed mans wisdom, nature lashed out in response to mankind’s stupidity. Coalescing energies exploded when biological and chemical weapons were released into the atmosphere. As a result two things occurred in short order, many people died and the dawning of the Era of the Gifted occurred. Some women who were pregnant or became pregnant gave birth to creatures of legend; trolls, dwarves, and elves. Other children born without such apparent deformities soon discovered in their youth that they could use magic, real magic. Not to be outdone by Mother Nature technology continued to progress as mankind found the means to improve the body with biological as well as technological implants.
Enter into this world teaming with those harboring violent tendencies four unlikely friends. Tweaker; a transplanted native of Seoul Korea and an ex government employee. Although Tweaker is a hopped up drug user with signs of premature aging it has not hampered his abilities with computers and vehicle operations including remote piloted drones. Mara is the bands ebony skinned goddess whose towering intellect is as impressive as her magical abilities. Snot; a contemplative brutish troll warrior whose vast number of biological and technological plants within him have turned Snot into a creature who is more like a walking tank. Then there is Evan; the man who puts it all together, a man with contacts, street savvy and diplomatic etiquette. At the end of the day the only thing that matters… is a good payday. What is so different about these four individuals for whom you will be finding yourself rooting for throughout these stories, well… they are the bad guys.
Four short stories with 4 b/w illustrations, and a total of approximately 235 pages.
