Beyond Kahn's Ladder

Sometime in the not too distant future, this tale is set in the post-apocalyptic calm after the storm of World War Three; that is, after all of the wailing and gnashing of teeth has died down and the surviving remnants of civilisation are trying to survive and live as best they can. Civilisation and society, by twenty first century definition, have disappeared to be replaced with deprivation, starvation and anarchy. As a tribute to forward planning for Continuation of Government, Britain has survived with King George the Seventh as the head of state. Without much to govern except in terms of desolated landscapes, the King’s CoG organisation is trying to maintain and defend whatever scraps of power and vestiges of civilisation remain under its aegis. Against this backdrop is a story containing all of the classical elements of good against evil, old lovers reunited, bravery, betrayal and redemption.
