"Rucka's ability to write concise and targeted
dialogue is on display as his characters show intense emotion through their
chosen words. Lark complements the story in almost uncanny ways as his realistic
and gritty style paints the stark world in blacks and browns. Fans of Rucka and
Lark's earlier work (Gotham Central) should lift this book right off the
shelf." -Booklist
While Forever keeps watch on her
sister Johanna, she finds hints of rebellion brewing in LA. At the same time,
the Barrets, a family of "Waste," lose their home and land, and must pursue
their only chance for a better life - a 500-mile journey to Denver in the hope
that one of their family will be noticed by the Carlyles and "lifted" to Serf
status.
