Three terrifying viruses threatened the world. Race wars devolved into bloody civil wars. Just when man was about to exterminate himself, the asteroid Wormwood appeared and nearly finished the job.

One that brought back old tensions and pitted brother against brother as people began to change. Old tensions arose as those afflicted were targeted by the fearful.

At a time when mankind should have been reaching for the future, life devolved into a nearly apocalyptic present, pitting neighbor against neighbor and nation against nation as three different viruses ravaged the population. Civil wars reduced the world population even more. Then came the asteroid Wormwood, and everything changed.
