Welcome to North America, 5000 years after the Death. The ruins of the civilized world
are overgrown with post-holocaust forest and deadly desert wasteland. The five Great Lakes have merged to form a vast inland Sea. Evolution has remodeled much of the plant and animal kingdoms.
 
In what was once the Canadian West, the small Metz Republic, led by the scholar-priests of the Abbeys, is struggling to recapture the glow of knowledge, order, and civilization. But the savage forces of the Unclean seem determined to crush anything  that stands in the way of its evil plans for domination.
 The Most Reverend Abbot Demero believes there is hope for the outnumbered Metz, but it depends on a long lost secret that must be recovered from deep in the dangerous and unexplored Brotherhood territory. If anyone can bring this knowledge back,  it is Per Hiero Desteen, telepath, warrior and priest.
 
 Hiero’s Journey chronicles that daring quest. Setting out, he is soon joined by other strange and mysterious characters.  Hiero and his companions face unimaginable challenges and peril at every turn, but nothing can prepare them for the surprise that awaits them at their destination.
The Unforsaken Hiero scatters the band of compatriots across the face of the continent.
Hiero will face capture by the Unclean, death by dehydration in the Deserts of Death, vicious attacks by murderous mutated animals, and the most devastating terror of all... loss of his unparalleled mental powers. He and his allies will be tested to the very limits of their abilities. They are bolstered only by a fierce determination to defeat the Unclean. It is that determination upon which their survival depends....and which must bring victory in their ultimate confrontation with the Unclean if the remnants of civilization are to survive.
