Afterword by Brian Keene

Part One takes place during the initial spread of Captain Trips and the dreams.

Part Two takes place between the migrations to Boulder and Las Vegas and the Hand of God moment.

Part Three takes place after the conclusion of the novel, detailing the world in the decades that follow.

And Part Four takes place… well, that would involve major spoilers. I think we’ll wait and let you find out where David J. Schow and Nat Cassidy’s stories take place.
