Justin Samuel Rogan was born during the apex of twenty-first century America, and while his parents hoped his life would be filled with peace and academic progression, he would be forced to accept a crumbling world, watching helplessly as it falls. While Justin would not save the world from the fall, he would be among the few to rise from the ashes of grief and turmoil to begin again, rebuild and establish four cities set apart from the chaos, preparing for a future foreseen by an ancient people carried to this planet from beyond the near stars millennia ago. 2033 is a portent of the times to come in the trilogy, Knights of Eden, mixing cultures, philosophies and scientific disciplines to provide a brighter democratic future from a fallen aristocracy. And it would have worked too if it weren’t for a few bad apples.
