Oil reserves depleted. Society collapsed.A few places cling to modern technology. For everywhere else, there are the Tinkers.In southern Ontario, Novo Gaia uses sustainable energy to support its citizens in comfort.

Brad Cooper is a tinker on his route in Guelph when he finds himself at the epicentre of a plague outbreak. Stranded without support in a tenuously-held quarantine zone, he must use his limited medical training in a desperate search for a treatment against an insidious relic from an age of excess. Meanwhile, fuelled by panic, other townspeople caught within the quarantine zone conspire to sabotage relief efforts.

Stephen B. Pearl is a multiple published author whose works range across the speculative fiction field. Whether his characters are wandering the wilds of a post-oil future, braving a storm in a longship, or flying through the interplanetary void in an army surplus assault lander, his writings focus heavily on the logical consequences of the worlds he crafts. Stephen's inspirations encompass H.G. Wells, J.R.R. Tolkien, Frank Herbert and Homer among others. In writing the Tinker's World series, he has, among other factors, drawn on his training as an Emergency Medical Care Assistant, a SCUBA diver, his long-standing interest in environmental technologies and his firsthand knowledge of the Guelph area. His fascination with metaphysics has contributed to his para-normal works. For more about Stephen and his works visit: www.stephenpearl.com
