MORDECAI CROW: THE SECRETS OF JARROW
BOOK 1 IN THE MORDECAI CROW TRILOGY
In a future where the secrets of the past have been lost, and knowledge is forbidden, technology-hating Luddites have triumphed over a world of scarce resources and devastating, unpredictable weather. Across the ruined landscape of this destroyed civilization, small pockets of Gnostic resistance have preserved the knowledge housed in the scattered remains of pre-Cloud ‘tek’ in refuges called Firewalls.
Mordecai Crow is a drifter, stuck between two worlds and belonging to neither. Born a Gnostic, survivors of a global meltdown that strive to regain lost knowledge, he was raised by Luddites, a war-like faction of fanatical anti-tech fundamentalists with an evangelical agenda. His search for the answers to his past leads him on a perilous quest through a dangerously divided land.
In Secrets of Jarrow, Mordecai, in search of his long-lost parents, must solve a mysterious murder to clear his name after seeking refuge in a fortress committed to preserving ancient knowledge. What secrets lie at the heart of its ancient walls? And how are they connected to Mordecai’s mysterious past?
‘Suspense, surprise and a stunning visual experience abound in this post-apocalyptic mystery story as humanity strives to rediscover lost history from before the ‘Fall’. A hugely impressive work of art from a virtuoso graphic novelist.’
– Stephen Biesty, author of the Incredible Cross-Sections series
‘The post-apocalyptic whodunnit I didn’t know I needed. High-speed storytelling in a well-crafted book.’
– Mike Donachie, Toronto Star
