Ruin - The Ruin Saga #1 Before the End there had been great cities, knowledge, power, bustling billions. All silenced when the vast majority of the world's population, quite suddenly, vanished. After forty years, an ominous force is laying waste to the survivors, and famine has struck. Norman Creek is struggling to feed the many mouths of New Canterbury, which clings to life while thousands starve or burn out in the wastes. Yet still they collect books, computers, art, saving all they can. They have a mission: to begin again. And Norman has a destiny: to lead them, prophesized at birth to bring about the return of civilization. But all he ever wanted was to disappear into the crowd, and turn his back on the legend. When a barbaric horde sets out to conquer the British Isles, and past misdeeds spell the city's doom, Norman must overcome self-doubt and mount their final stand, as the last war of mankind begins.
