Product Description
In a not-too-distant future, the earth is decimated by war with an extra-terrestrial enemy and mankind is left on the verge of extinction. What little of society is still standing is virtually enslaved toward a rebuilding effort while a smaller portion of the population roams the wastelands as little more than savages. A loving couple with a baby on the way must decide whether to stay in the city (where a frightening threat against the unborn is revealed), or venture into the wasteland on their own. City of Ruin is a bleak, dystopian view of the world left behind, where the hope for a better tomorrow can be the only thing needed to survive.
For fans of The Hunger Games and Children of Men.
