Cass Dollar is a survivor. She’s overcome the meltdown of civilization, humans turned mindless cannibals, and the many evils of man.

But from beneath the devastated California landscape emerges a tendril of hope. A mysterious traveler arrives at New Eden with knowledge of a passageway North—a final escape from the increasingly cunning Beaters. Clutching this dream, Cass and many others decamp and follow him into the unknown.

The final showdown with the mysterious figure—also known as the major pain in my …

So yes, I have djinns on my brain. They are part of my story-psyche.

“Djinn,” pronounced “gin,” are …
