About the book: 2014 / They tried to create the perfect cure, but instead they created the perfect killer. Invisible, inexorable, insatiable nanoparticles devour all warm-blooded creatures below 3000 meters above sea level. The balance of the ecosystem has been disrupted, locusts and termites are destroying entire forests, and erosion has forever changed river courses. Over the course of fourteen long months, forever remembered in human history as the Cursed Year, entire states and nations were wiped off the face of the earth. But this doesn’t seem to be enough for the survivors. On all continents, populations are locked in a furious war for livable territories. A war of all against all. A war in which no prisoners are taken and humanity is not remembered.
