Short description

In a ruined future, two teenagers, one a girl from a religious cult determined to stop the rebuilding of a technological society whose destruction they believe was punishment from God, one a boy from a group just as determined to rebuild the old high-tech world, must overcome their differences to work together to stop the first war of the new age--a war that might destroy both their peoples.

Extended description

It's midway through the 21st century, and after economic collapse and a "small" war, civilization is in pretty bad shape. On the Canadian prairies, a religious cult, the Chosen, has dedicated itself to destroying all vestiges of the old technological civilization--but only a few hundred kilometres away, the Technos are just as dedicated to rebuilding it. The two cultures are on a collision course that could mean the first war of the new era, and mutual destruction, unless the teenage daughter of the cult's leader and a boy from the Technos can overcome their own personal differences and prevent it...no matter what the cost.

Review by: Rick Davies on April 12, 2012 :
Great short story that gets you thinking about the future after devistation and how different beliefs can come out of it.

Well worth the read for both teens annd adults.
