The nuclear bombs we dreaded have fallen.
Torn and battered, America has split into enemy states. The walled-in People's Republic of the west suffers under a harsh dictator. To the east, a country known as the New Dallas Republic aims to prosper in the ruins of Texas.
Between them is a wall and a wasteland. Crossing is forbidden and highly dangerous.
The world has changed, but so have its people...
Born after the bombs, the "Children of the Atom" possess incredible psychic gifts. They live as slaves until one chooses to be free. His name is Michael Cairne, and he's only seventeen years old.
This the epic story of a young man with the ability to dominate the minds of others. It is the story of the dying war hero who hopes to save Michael from himself; the girl who will show Michael what it means to love; and the assassin who will train him to become a weapon.
...and a battle - born of betrayal - that will ignite a war over the minds of men.
