David Morr longs for escape. Trapped in a tiny village between the tyrannical Empire of Tockland and a vast, plague-ridden wasteland, he dreams of a better life. So when a traveling circus arrives, he seizes his chance to leave everything behind.
But the road is more treacherous than he ever imagined. The plague is spreading, turning people into mindless killers. Cities are collapsing. And Tockland's iron grip is tightening, sweeping across the land in a relentless campaign of conquest and control.
As the circus winds its way through an unraveling world, David and his fellow performers are drawn deeper into the chaos-where sickness, madness, and oppression collide. Survival will demand courage, sacrifice, and the will to fight against the darkness closing in.
A gripping blend of post-apocalyptic horror and dystopian adventure, Shadows of Tockland is a darkly suspenseful tale of resilience, rebellion, and the unbreakable human spirit.
