Untold millennia ago, the Preservers made the world called Confluence and peopled it with ten thousand extraordinary bloodlines shaped from beasts of every sort Then the Preservers abandoned their creation -- leaving behind their law, their bureaucracies, and their trillions of machines, awake or slumbering, in the soil and the water and the air. In the gods' absence war came and a dangerous heresy arose that split the world in two. But a babe swept in on the great river, cradled in the arms of death -- the last and, perhaps, greatest of a remarkable bloodline -- signaling the beginning of the end times. And as Yama grows to young manhood, every hairbreadth escape and unanticipated adventure will bring him one step closer to the staggering truth about his heritage and his purpose ... and about a world that is not what it appears to be.
