Premise:

More than a hundred years since a major event known as The Turning, mostly long forgotten by survivors, life has simplified to Tribalism. There is no electricity, no supermarkets, and no city life. Humanity has taken steps backward. This is the age of survival, recovering from a wound no one wants to confront or even remember.

Resurrected from the World Unturned, a train carrying a band of vagabonds known as The Unlawful, preach a new way of life, but destroy any way that does not conform. Led by a man who calls himself Mercury Fatale, he loots and burns villages looking for someone in particular. 

While on an outing to retrieve water from a river a few days away, the two main characters, Orr and Julia return to a home eviscerated. With little answers as to why and who, they seek revenge and search for reasons. The two set off on a journey through the warped world referred to as Atlandia, affected by an evolution of extreme science and nature. The further they go, the deeper and darker it gets. Through psychological thrills, hallucinogenic realism, and a different way to look at science fiction, A Dark Blue Marble takes the reader on a tour de force that leaves you breathless and maybe a paper cut.
