Elysium
A Tale of Community and Corruption.
2140 CE
For a Century the world has been ignorant of the life that dwells beyond Stone Hill Garrison.
A community has thrived in the intervening years since The Great Pathogen, ever conscious they may one day be found by the slowly deteriorating old-world.
Unknown to them, the Ministry of Defence suspects that not only is there life beyond the border, but a community able to manipulate and disperse the virus that wiped out a quarter of the world’s population a century before.
The villagers carry out their lives while a countdown hangs over them, swiftly ticking to conclude in a violent and harrowing confrontation on the shores of Mortehoe.

Enjoyed a good read
I read parts one and two and anxiously await part three. I also enjoyed the style and how the different elements were woven together. For those reviewers that dislike the vocabulary or pace of the books, I would not recommend any H.P. Hovercraft and would suggest that perhaps a comic book would be more to their liking.

Excellent second part to the trilogy, hoping that part 3 is not far away! :)
