After years of staggering from one global disaster to the next, humanity faces what will perhaps be its final enemy: the epidemic Heavy and its aftermath. Aided by human folly, apathy, and arrogance, the Heavy has wiped out most of the planets population, and with it, all semblance of civilization. A few, scattered bands of survivors are left to pick up the pieces and rebuildif they can.

Told from the viewpoint of one of the surviving groups leaders, Eminent Plague is a fascinating study of courage and cruelty in the face of nearly unimaginable hardship. Don Lowell paints an intricate picture of the plagues survivors, struggling to overcome the ever-present threats of starvation and disease, and in the process creating the beginnings of a new, primitive society. But their modest success draws brutal bands of human predators, intent on plundering their hard-won resources and on burning and killing everything elseindifferent to humanitys long-term survival. In Eminent Plague, humans overcome disease, starvation, and anarchybut can they survive human stupidity?
