Produktbeschreibung

Decades after the Great Collapse ravaged the earth, whispers emerge of the Iron Forests: breathtaking ecosystems where abandoned technology and nature have fused into something strange and beautiful.  Towering metallic trees, born from the skeletal remains of skyscrapers, pulse with an ethereal bioluminescence, their branches interwoven with vibrant, mutated vines.  When the fragile Global Council dispatches botanist Dr. Lila Orlov to explore these uncharted territories, she uncovers a world far beyond her wildest imaginings. Accompanied by a skeptical engineer and an ecologist haunted by the ghosts of the old world, Lila ventures into the heart of the Iron Forest.  There, amidst the humming air thick with ozone and damp earth, she discovers a delicate symbiosis, a silent symphony of life reclaiming the ravaged planet.  Discarded circuit boards become nests for bioluminescent insects, hollowed-out cars shelter genetically modified squirrels with metallic fur, and the metallic flora purifies the poisoned air and soil. The Iron Forest isn't just surviving; it's healing. But Lila's discovery attracts the attention of OmniCorp, a ruthless megacorporation that sees not a sanctuary but a resource ripe for exploitation.  Jessica Jackson, OmniCorp's ambitious executive, views the Iron Forest as a mine brimming with rare metals, essential for her corporation's dominance in the new world order.  As OmniCorp's machines tear into the forest's delicate balance, the vibrant glow fades, replaced by the dull gray of dying metal, and the purified air thickens with toxins. Faced with the destruction of this miraculous ecosystem, Lila's scientific objectivity shatters.  Together with her team and a growing network of locals who depend on the forest's healing properties-including Kai, a young scavenger with intimate knowledge of the forest's hidden paths, and Elara, an elder who holds the secrets of its symbiotic relationships-Lila must fight to protect this fragile new world.  They are a David facing the Goliath of OmniCorp, armed with their ingenuity, courage, and the very interconnectedness of the forest itself. But can they stop OmniCorp's relentless advance and prevent the whispers of the Iron Forest from fading into silence? The fate of the ecosystem, and perhaps the planet, hangs in the balance.
