Star's Reach John Michael Greer 9781915952141

A novel of the deindustrial future...

More than four centuries have passed since industrial civilization stumbled to its ruin under the self-inflicted blows of climate change and resource depletion.

Now, in the ruins of a deserted city, a young man mining metal risks his life to win a priceless clue.

That discovery will send him, and an unlikely band of seekers, on a quest for a place out of legend, where human beings might once have communicated with distant worlds...to a place called Star's Reach...
