In the dusty ruins of once verdant Earth, humanity is forced to live in bio-domes that protect them from the harsh environment of the Burn Zone. In the government controlled domes, life is highly regimented and Dax, a high school history teacher, is tired of his lackluster existence, but he has plans to make everything better. Unfortunately for Dax, an orphan named Jake has different ideas. The boy wants Dax to abandon his dream of a cushy new professorship and go looking for what must surely be a fable. The government says that the only thing outside the comfort of the domes is death, but the two will have to cross the void in an attempt to fulfill the boy’s self-proclaimed quest.Can Dax forego his plans, defy his government and survive the Burn Zone, just on the whim of a kid? And if he does, can he protect Jake and himself from the unknown dangers of the outside world?
