Silver
Summary
A lost ship - a new world Urban is no longer master of the fearsome starship Dragon. Driven out by the hostile, godlike entity, Lezuri, he has taken refuge aboard the most distant vessel in his outrider fleet. Though Lezuri remains formidable, he is a broken god, commanding only a fragment of the knowledge that once was his. He is desperate to return home to the ring-shaped artificial world he created at the height of his power, where he can recover the memory of forgotten technologies. Urban is desperate to stop him. He races to reach the ring-shaped world first, only to find himself stranded in a remote desert, imperiled by a strange flood of glowing "silver" that rises in the night like fog - a lethal fog that randomly rewrites the austere, Earthlike landscape. He has only a little time to decipher the mystery of the silver and to master its secrets. Lezuri is coming - and Urban must level up before he can hope to vanquish the broken god.

Summary
The roads of 2044 America are a dangerous and deadly place. With society in ruins from two wars, a forced famine, and political ineptness, America (as well as much of the civilized world) has fallen a few notches closer to total anarchy. Here at home, bandits roam the lonely interstates, preying on the unprepared and less fortunate. But, despite all of this, there is a light at the end of the dark, lonely tunnel. Well, two lights actually. Those are the headlights of a semi, hauling the desperately needed supplies to one of the few pockets of humanity that still cling to yesterday and a bygone era. Its sleek lines and armored bulk assure you that as long as you stay close, within the umbrella protection of the massive guns slung in turrets along its roof, you just might make it. For you are as precious a cargo as any box of toys or toiletries. You are under the watchful eyes of a devoted and stalwart member of The Brotherhood.
