All mankind was united in one project: to build a great city with a magnificent tower that reached to the heavens. But the tower fell; God confused their languages, and overnight, their world dissolved into unimaginable chaos.</p><p><br></p><p>Family groups, still tied by language, salvage what they can and flee to the countryside to survive. On the way, the family group of Enmer stumbles upon a highborn man, who does not speak their tongue. He lies paraplegic and near death, having survived a fall from the tower.</p><p><br></p><p>The matriarch of the family insists they save him; he is a human being, is he not? But he is also hateful, demanding, and useless. But if they don't save him, <em>who are they?</em> And, if they do, he will leave them forever changed.</p><p><br></p><p>This sweeping epic starts at Babel and carries the action across the continent of Asia, even to the ends of the earth.</p>
