2016 Dragon Award for Best Apocalyptic Novel (nominee)
The tree of Liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. -- Thomas Jefferson
It started with love.
The love of a young man for his Julie; the love of a mother for her doomed daughter; the love and sacrifice of an orphaned brother for his kid sister. No force in the world, even that of a totalitarian nanny-state, can erase the power of love.
It became a movement.
With the youthful and charismatic energy of lovers Randy and Julie at the core, dissident freedom-loving groups come together. From outright rebels to smugglers, from gay-rights groups to Christian congregations, they all recognized a common purpose: the reignition of freedom.
It ended in blood -- and hope.
Julie's rebels identify key weaknesses in the government structure that can be exploited, given time, skill, and luck. But the government has lost patience with the dissidents, brutally cracking down on freedom-fighters and ordinary citizens alike in its efforts to exert full control. With the government growing ever closer to uncovering the secrets of the alliance, will Julie and Randy be able to hold off annihilation long enough to emerge victorious?
