Dies the Fire

The geek shall inherit the earth. According to the author, SCA, Tolkien, and Renaissance Festival aficionados, as well as Wiccans, stand the best chance. So will a few farmers, survivalists, motorcycle gang members, and history and engineering professors when all technology is wiped out in a bizarre cataclysmic event. Those who don't perish quickly from lack of food and water and exposure to the elements return to a Middle Ages existence, coming together in small groups, or attempting to create maniacal oppressive kingdoms. Stirling creates a very realistic post-apocalyptic scenario with great detail. For me, the detail derailed my interest in the story, keeping me from developing a strong relationship with the plight of the main characters.
