Molly and Freeman anticipated, and dealt with, many threats to their fragile Collective of too-old teenagers in the streets of post-apocalyptic Philadelphia. They never thought the most serious threat would be a job offer.
How do you build, and keep, a community, when the world has fallen to pieces? What do you do when outside powers try to rip your consensus apart? How do Quakers, anarchists, and regular folks build a system that lets everyone thrive... and what do they do when outside forces try to break everything? And what do they do when those forces co-opt the driving members of that Collective?
This epic book follows the struggles of a found family of orphaned and abandoned teenagers as they attempt to change the course of Philadelphia's future from a constant struggle of fighting strongmen to a consensus of cooperative workers building a new order from the rubble of our civilization. It's a big job, and the threats are many. Can a just world be built?
