New York, 2064 - an oasis of life which has evolved fifty two years on since the near annihilation of the human race by its own hand. Out of billions across the world, relatively few had survived the impact of humankind's nature to impose one's beliefs onto others. These unfortunate souls had resumed the fight for survival eventually managing to achieve something as close to normality as was possible in this new world, the high perimeter walls of The State of New York affording a relative safety from the past. Hardly any were left without the scars of fear. Order had returned but at a significant cost - a fruitless existence under totalitarian rule though little did they realise this would have been preferable to what was to follow! Book One of Allen Chambers' Mindways Chronicles - Reflection opens a Pandora's Box of mythical demons and powerful Gods who, following in the path of their ancient forefathers The Pioneers, have created Dimensions and sub-worlds within the vastness of the Universe for their own pleasure. The Darkness, a malevolent blight which had plagued the Gods from the beginning of time has returned and the Gods prepare to defend their domains yet again. Five protagonists secreted on Earth following the Great Rift have been revived and are to play pivotal roles in the ensuing battle for ultimate power as an epic chronicle unfolds across Time and Space.
