The Iron Liturgy

About this book

Three centuries after a global collapse known as the Great Silence, humanity survives in the Blue Ridge Archipelago—the high peaks of the former Appalachian Mountains, now islands in an inland sea. Society is bound by the Iron Liturgy, a rigid code that mandates the preservation of Old World artifacts but strictly forbids their use. When a salvage team discovers a preserved Black Box from the past, the truths it holds threaten to shatter the foundation of their fragile society. Told through alternating timelines—one chronicling the desperate final days before the collapse, and the other following a modern ensemble cast grappling with the explosive revelation—the story explores the tension between preserving the past and forging a new future.
