WE ALL HAVE DEMONS. SOME DEMONS HAVE YOU. The world you know is
dead. We did this to ourselves. The epidemic struck at the end of
the Third World War. Fighting over oil, power, and religion,
governments ignored the rise of an antibacterial-resistant plague.
In just five years, the Earth was annihilated. Only one city
survived-Etyom-a frozen hellhole in northern Siberia, engulfed in
endless conflict. The year is 2251. Two groups emerged from the
ashes of the old world. Within the walled city of Lower Etyom dwell
the Robusts-descendants of the poor who were immune to the New
Black Death. Above them, in a metropolis of pristine platforms
called lillipads, live the Graciles-the progeny of the superrich,
bio-engineered to resist the plague. Mila Solokoff is a Robust who
trades information in a world where knowing too much can get you
killed. Caught in a deal gone bad, she's forced to take a high-risk
job for a clandestine organization hell-bent on revolution. Demitri
Stasevich is a Gracile with a dark secret-a sickness that, if
discovered, will get him Ax'd. His only relief is an illegal
narcotic produced by the Robusts, and his only means of obtaining
it is a journey to the arctic hell far below New Etyom. Thrust
together in the midst of a sinister plot that threatens all life
above and below the cloud line, Mila and Demitri must master their
demons and make a choice-one that will either salvage what's left
of the human race or doom it to extinction ... Awards Bronze Winner
