An infinite, desperate scramble to escape from the consequences of humanity’s hubris!
Earth is no longer what it used to be. An environmental catastrophe has transformed the atmosphere into a large magnifying glass that supercharges solar radiation, and a nuclear disaster has slowed down the planet’s rotation speed. Anyone that moves slower than 78 miles per hour cannot escape the scorching sun.
Only a small group of people has been able to survive in this new world. They constantly stay on the move in a huge rolling city. They can never stop, no matter what they might have to leave behind.
