Amok 651 :: Cynders is about an old White man trying to return home, from downtown Miami where the second and last US civil war has started.
An old man with horrible memories of having failed family, friends, compatriots and humans.
An old man with a heavy heart and some rare moments of fresh lucidity, a lonely old man with no real friends and so few allies, only ghosts and real bullets.
Home is... where friends and foes push him. Home should be right after the US Canada border.
If he can make it.
If the civil war, the progressive collapse of Law and Order let him survive.
If the other mind controlled killers from his pod don't capture him first.
If Dr Greenbaum doesn't get back in his head first. Or uses his only remaining source of wired love, Sam, to lure him back.
Alan Murdoch Jefferson wants to go home.
And home is where his soul is. |
