"In the year 2044 A.D. London lies in crumbling ruins. Inflation, nuclear accidents, and the breakdown of world rule have left each man and woman to fight alone. Into this primeval chaos, a strange silver-haired child is born in a violent union of good and evil. Son of the terrible warlord White Prince Michael and fifteen-year-old Bara, Con is gifted with a mysterious and powerful knowledge. Haunted by relentless dreams, bara and Con embark on a deadly journey. Through lands of savage ritual, witchcraft, and bloody human sacrifice, they are drawn by an unknown force toward Ireland, the world's last haven of beauty and peace--and mankind's only hope for survival."--Pg.
