"Reminiscent of Stephen King's THE STAND"
A group of scientists were working on a top secret project
known to them as the Source but what they let loose changed
the face of America. Technology has ground to a halt and
is about the level that existed during the Middle Ages in
Europe. It also changed the DNA of some of the population,
turning some humans into creatures like Flairs, elf like
beings that the Source uses as a power supplement. New York Lawyer Cal Griffin raised his little sister Trina,
but when she changed and disappeared, he vowed to find her
and stop the Source from using and harming her. He gathers
together a small group of traveling companions including
the mystical homeless man Herman Golding, Russian Doctor
Lysenko who used to run a hot dog stand, and Colleen, an
ordinary woman. During their travels, they meet another
group of people who can help them in their quest if they
risk helping them out on a very dangerous situation. Some of the questions left hanging in the prequel are
answered yet there remains many questions that should be
answered in the next book in this series. Readers observe
more of the revisions and modifications brought about by
THE SOURCE to include geographical alterations executed by
this perverted energy and more enlightening to the reader
the changes happening to Cal and his friends. The authors
have written a work that is reminiscent of Stephen King's
THE STAND. Harriet Klausner
