In the early part of the twenty-first century, in the waning days of the Swanson administration, there was a cataclysmic nuclear attack by Muslim extremists. Three hundred million Americans perished. Mass sterility and gene defects were the seminal events of the war.

Gaul, the consummate warrior of the Legion, was born into this world. This is his story as he fights to gain what twenty-first century Americans take for granted. It is a quest for justice in a cruel world that has no respect for the human condition.
