Publisher's Synopsis
A doctor journeys southwest from New York and finds a small community terrorized by religious fanatics. Two children follow a witch into the woods--and discover the dark secrets of the former nation they call home. A young woman chafes against the future lined out for her by others, then sets out in search of a very different kind of life. A man spends years monitoring a small river until one day a hard choice is forced upon him. And sudden, desperate visitors force the leaders of a small town to weigh a threat at the edge of their borders. In this sixth issue of Into the Ruins, journeys and revelations abound. Ordinary people caught up in the complex web of civilizational collapse must make hard decisions, determine who to trust, and open themselves to life-altering discoveries. They travel the land in hopes of finding new lives and helping those in need--and in the process, unveil the hard and complicated futures coming for us, beset with the consequences of our current society's destruction and excess.
