Salvation Earth.

A Sci-Fi. Novel by A. K. Boswell

 

Arran kills his own father to save him from a painful death. Arran is plagued with guilt for a long time.

The novel begins with the impression that it is set in medieval times but gradually becomes apparent that it is in the future.  A future after world war three.

OK, the setting itself is not original, but has been kept close to plausibility rather than outright fantasy. Everything is controlled by four big corporations living in orbit, nation states have gone.

The leading characters are a tribe of samurai like warriors living self-sufficiently in a wasteland. A local baron and his bully soldiers, northern warlike tribes and alien descendants. Corporate agents, believed to be gods, coerce northern tribes to steal food and lay waste to the land starting a war.

The corporations intend to clear the earth of all life and start again. With the help of a wizard, our hero finds himself in orbit. Nothing is what it seems. But with additional help from an android and robots, he discovers a deeper plot to destroy all humanity. With corporate police, mind influencing thought police, AI computer, an enchanted sword and a fight in a virtual world Arran has his hands full. The sword turns out to be an alien device that inserts a virus into the system.

 

Background. The planet had become almost uninhabitable.  The corporations had been building space stations in orbit and evacuated all their people from the surface to continue to expand in space.  Planet Earth was left to decay.  Many generations later saw the survivors with a medieval economy and low life expectancy due to radiation poisoning.  Life as we know it had changed beyond all recognition.  The primitive people that we follow discover they have multiple problems.

On gaining a foothold on the orbitals, their gains began to be reversed by the Thought Police who could manipulate emotions.  No one knew who was on whose side.

All communications by corporate leaders based on the moon, were carried out in virtual reality.  The purpose of this was to cut time and travel between the stations.  The virtual reality was originally constructed because life in space was depressing.  They could walk on a green Earth and feel the wind in virtual.  This was so popular that all, important conferences were carried out in virtual and a whole world created.  Before total control was gained, our hero had to enter the virtual world and defeat the corporate leaders.  This was a new and strange world where anything was possible. Giving rise, to a series of unusual events.

On the final defeat of the corporations our hero finally discovers an alien threat that had been getting closer and closer.

Adventure and surprise.
A fast-paced, evocative and imaginative novel
following the struggles of a dynamic cast of
characters as they navigate an intriguing and
well-constructed plot
