Produktbeschreibung

My name is Sabrina Sabryia. I live in the twin cities of Fortinbras and Lysander in the land behind the walls, an island of life on a planet scorched to ruin.

But it lives.

My father Peter was strong, the strongest man I knew. He was to live forever. But he died when his chest exploded in front of me in red flowers of blood.

My mother loved me. But she tried to kill me.
I love my uncle. But he is not my uncle.
My uncle saved me. He saved millions. But he murdered thousands and deceived more.
In the name of peace.
To avert a catastrophe.
That lives within all of us.

In the mid-twenty-first century, peace has come to Israel-Palestine, but only through the erasure of history and even individuals' memories. In the aftermath of this draconian solution, symbols of faith, religion itself, are outlawed.

Sabrina, a young police cadet, is a resolute enforcer of the law. Until her loyalties are torn between her best friend Lindsey, a charismatic spiritual leader, and her uncle Angelo, the head administrator of the city. When Lindsey faces an unimaginable punishment, Sabrina betrays her oaths to stop it. The choice casts Sabrina and Lindsey into a radioactive wasteland where they're pursued by cyborg bounty hunters.

In flight, the two friends discover a religious uprising that threatens the survival of humanity. With every faction as their enemy, Sabrina and Lindsey must choose sides. Their decision pits friend against family, war against peace, and faith against doubt.

It's a fight to decide the world they want to live in.

If that world survives.

If you found the family dilemmas and dark world building of Netflix's Arcane; the political, theological questions posed by Frank Herbert's Dune; the gritty futurism of Blade Runner; Hugh Howey's Silo Series, or James Cameron's Dark Angel, compelling, City on a Hill is for you.
