By 2242, mankind conquered life and death due to the great Neuro global
network in which humans reside as part of a complex network. However, increase Global Resistance activity leads
World Leader Rosario Donahi, with support from Guardian Enterprises and more
important from her boss “King” Edgar Prince, to begin a campaign to silence the
opposition by using the Energy Grid against them.
For two centuries since the Great Shift, Newsreel host Adam
Winter, like all humanity, has lived as an eHuman. For the past five decades he lived with Miranda
Valentine in New Omaha, North American Province, but she has left him. Distraught Adam soon learns that the World
Government has begun a vicious assault on cities beginning with unplugging Chengdu
and New Chelyabinsk with New Omaha on the list for annihilation. He joins the Global Resistance led by first
eHuman Dawn and Origen who shock him with their revelations of who he is and
what he means to their saving mankind.
With a nod to the Zager And Evans’ In The Year 2525, the
allegorical eHuman Dawn looks deeply into what defines a
human; what life is and what living means.
Although the action starts slow with mass murdering occurring off page,
readers will relish this character driven science fiction morality tale; as the
good, the bad and the ugly compete with different visions re the future of
mankind.
