Inverted.
Surviving The Upside-down World.
Up is down. Back is forward. Last is first. Weak is strong.
Twenty-five years after surviving the collision of worlds in Charity's Fire, the next generation has been trained to lead the underground. Then, the eldest runs away to Mars to escape the demands of leadership, and the second in command turns into a selfish rebel- bent on destruction.
Is everything always falling toward chaos?
As millions on earth flee the grip of the tyrannical Global Union, who will lead the outcasts to freedom? Who will rescue the downtrodden? Who will stand in the gap for the persecuted? Where will they run?
Short-sighted human ambitions need to fall to the ground and die before the real plan can emerge from the fertile soil of impossibility.
Are the Rebel and the Runaway really cowards?
Was their preparation another divine distraction?
Or have they suffered enough to be in the perfect position
from which the underground can launch
an exodus of Biblical proportions?
Inverted.
Strong is weak. First is last. Forward is back. Down is up.
Survive upside-down.
