Review & Description
When the world went mad and war brought civilization to ruin, the Rezernaan restored it. Some call the Rezernaan wizards, and others call them radicals. A young man named Falki rose to the top of their ranks with unprecedented speed. Now he will face a danger that will lead him to partner with twin rogues, an exiled murderer, an heir to an industrial empire, and a strange man from his past.
Falki lives in a world that is still struggling to recover from the ravages of The Fall. The golden days before The Fall were guided by a simple phrase: “Progress through knowledge; knowledge through science”. But then the Great War came, and all the sciences of the past led to catastrophic destruction. Out of the ashes rose a mystical group of protectors—the Rezernaan.
The Rezernaan and the remnants of the civilized world live on a tiny group of idyllic islands that were miraculously spared from the chaos of The Fall. The first pilgrims arrived centuries ago, and found a race of people called the Panotti already there. The Panotti are small in stature, short in lifespan, and fiercely devoted to nature. Falki is their most famous son, and his skill with Rezernaan techniques is legendary amongst his people. But there are others even more powerful than he.
When Vannekar, a malcontent senior Rezernaan, suddenly begins to advocate a revival of the old sciences, the leader of the Rezernaan chooses Falki to run a covert mission to undermine Vannekar’s efforts. Falki recruits a skilled but contentious crew of specialists who will use all their wits and abilities to foil Vannekar’s plans for revolution, but their foe will not go down without a fight. He is cunning, strong, and convinced that the Rezernaan must change, or die.When the world went mad and war brought civilization to ruin, the Rezernaan restored it.
