After the World Starved

By Garrett Mullins

"Genetic tampering created a vast new arsenal for mankind to kill one another, ultimately plunging the world into a bloodbath of riots and resource wars after a crop killing virus was released. That was eight decades ago. Humanity endured, just as it had all its previous cataclysms, with a small fraction of its former population rebuilding on the ruins of the old world. Except now that the grain caravans from the south have abruptly halted, it looks like it might happen all over again. This is little concern to Littilay, she travels the new land this science brought about alone. Cursed by her imposing form and undeveloped vocal cords, she's elated to find a kind soul actually capable of communicating with her, an emissary who may well be the key to reopening the trade route before it's too late. But there are many threats on the road. Lingering beasts created by man's unchecked meddling, and of course the increasingly hungry masses. While facing them Littilay must also face the primal rage inside her own mind. Her control of this beast will be strained like never before if she is to see her first true friend back to the capital city of her birth."My first finished novel is a new take on the post apocalyptic fiction genre. Not so much about the calamity, but rather what came after. The story takes readers on a tour of the new world, from small hunting hamlets to the grand capitol, from the lands still controlled by man to those ruled by... others.
