There have been a thousand tales of future Utopias and possible
civilizations. They have been ruled by benevolent dictatorships and
pure democracies, every form of government from extreme right to
absolute left. Unique among these is the easy-going
semi-anarchistic society ruled by THE SYNDIC. Syndic versus Mob The
Syndic operates as a protective league in what was once the eastern
U. S. It is a totally hedonistic society, moral inhibitions are
gone. The corrupt old North American government has been driven
back to Europe.... West of the Mississippi is Mob territory. Mob is
a society with values totally opposed to the Syndic. The Mob is
morally ruled but with an iron hand. When a wave of assassinations
break out it is clear that it is time to take.
