About this audiobook
Global war devastated the environment, a zombie-like plague wiped out much of humanity, and civilization as we once understood it came to a standstill. But that was a thousand years ago, and the world is now a very different place.
Conflict between city states is constant, superstition is rife, and machine relics, mutant creatures and resurrected prehistoric beasts trouble the land. Watching over all are the silent Dreaming Cities. Homes of the angels, bastion outposts of heaven on Earth. Or so the church claims. Very few go in, and nobody ever comes out.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5
a real adventure with a surprise ending! Well written - Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This book is a futuristic, post-apocalyptic, medieval fantasy, zombie story. The world of Quinn, the wayward knight, has potential for some interesting story-telling, but this particular story fell a little flat to me. There was a hint at something bigger to come, but stopped just short of saying what it could be – more like a door left open, instead of a clue to a larger quest.
