A few humans carry on, living in outposts such as the Sanctuary-the remains of St. Louis-a shielded community that owes its survival to its militant defense and fear-mongering leaders. Then a rider comes from the wasteland beyond its walls. She reports on the outside world: west of the Cascades, rain falls, crops grow, civilization thrives. But there is danger too: the rising power of an army that pillages and enslaves every community they happen upon. Against the wishes of the Sanctuary, a small group sets out in secrecy. Led by Lewis Meriwether and Mina Clark, they hope to expand their infant nation, and to reunite the States. But the Sanctuary will not allow them to escape without a fight. 500 $a New Book -- June -- 2016 600 10 $a Clark, William, $d 1770-1838 $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Dystopias $v Fiction. 600 10 $a Lewis, Meriwether, $d 1774-1809 $v Fiction. 600 17 $a Clark, William, $d 1770-1838. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00019951 600 17 $a Lewis, Meriwether, $d 1774-1809. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00040065 650 7 $a Dystopias. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00900372 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 941 $a 1 952 $l PNAX964 $d 20200829013629.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1C765A923A9A11E6B291C381DAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IX2Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
