The Devil's Utopia - Paperback

by J. Schimschal (Author)

For countless generations, the village of Scarskin has exiled its youth into the wastelands of the Darken Realm as a rite of passage into adulthood. Those exiled are supposed to scour the ruins of the battered world for ancient relics and lost technologies. Twenty full moons must rise before the youth can return home and take their place in Scarskin society... ...but only if they survive. In the history of Scarskin, many exiled youth ran the gauntlet and pushed east from the village into the barren wasteland. In all the generations, not a single youth exiled had ever returned from the east. It was whispered amongst the villagers that the eastern wasteland was endless and filled with deadly peril. With an air of adventure and a need to explore the unknown, the newest exiles from Scarskin put caution to the wind and set out to uncover the mysteries of the eastern wasteland. This is their story. The Devil's Utopia is the first book in the Darken Realm series of books.
