No Delight In Fools. Questo articolo non è disponibile.No Delight In Fools

In the near future, the world has begun anew. After generations of economic exploitation, western civilization has collapsed under its own weight and haughtiness. The energy and communications grids have been wiped out in an unprecedented currency crash. Across the former United States, no activity is conducted in a greater radius than a day's ride on horseback.

The Peril, a ten-year period of famine and chaos, has come to an end. Under the guidance of the sagely Mr. Chesterfield, the rural community of Nearfield has seen the resurrection of commerce, private property, economy, leadership, homes and families. Having experienced and studied the degradation and ultimate collapse of the "Old World" system, Mr. Chesterfield and his esteemed Elder Council ensure that simple principles and practices are observed, so as to prevent the "New World" from falling into the same traps. War, taxation, conscription, indoctrination, censorship and irrational belief are all denounced unanimously.

However, after mysterious men appear from a very dangerous, very different kind of place, the residents of Nearfield are thrown into the path of imminent danger. Their illusion of safety shattered, convictions and beliefs are brought into question and fought about in the public forum.

Some see their only preservation in revamped measures of security, others see the utter erasure of liberty and dignity.

Swept up in the madness of their community are Cecil and Eva, the young couple with bright plans for their future, Auron, the conscientious objector wanting to escape from all forms of organized leadership, and Enoch, a condemned man from a neighboring town.

Along with Mr. Chesterfield, they will fight for their beliefs in a world much more malleable than our modern day. As the political chaos unfolds and basic safety is jeopardized, they will search for answers, both in the world and within themselves.

All will seek, not all will find...
