Jack Bowman is out of luck and out of money — until he agrees to be cryogenically frozen for a major scientific research company. When his pod splits open two thousand years later, he finds a wasteland world of warring tribes, mutated animals, monsters, and ogres. The freezing process was only half the experiment. Something swimming in his bloodstream is turning Jack into something more than human, and he'll need every advantage he can get to survive.

Jack Bowman agrees to be cryogenically frozen for a scientific experiment, expecting to wake up rich after a few years. Two thousand years later, he emerges into a wasteland world of warring tribes, monsters, and ogres. The other half of the experiment is already inside him, rewriting his biology into something beyond human.

Victorious over an evil warlord, Jack Bowman begins building the first free city in a broken world. The Free Oasis is growing, but its existence draws raiders hungry for resources — including a secret facility where nuclear power waits for whoever is strong enough to claim it.

Jack and his companions discover a cache of cutting-edge technology and set out to explore the grim landscape beyond their borders. A reconnaissance flight over open desert leads to an encounter with people and a hidden place preserved for nearly two thousand years — and a mysterious woman waiting inside.

Eden Chain technology begins connecting Jack's growing people as they prepare for war. But Kassos — a city of intrigue and fear — is not what it seems, and a new threat called the Procurators is using ancient nanobot technology to strike against Jack and his allies.

Something is killing people around the Free Oasis, and Jack is determined to stop it. A new ally arrives from the east, and Jack sets a plan in motion to build an army capable of taking Kassos — a city where slavery and lies rule. Further exploration reveals an ancient enemy that has been using humans as a resource and technology as a weapon.
