The Irredente Chronicles, in multiple volumes, derive from disparate, far-future historical sources and tell the interconnected histories of people and sentient machines at an important crossroads: where technology prohibitions clash with the universal imperative to create and propagate. Book I, Out From Edom, follows the entwined fates of a reactionary priest and an urchin boy who flee on separate trajectories from a backwater world attacked by a mysterious alien power. In their separate voyages across the technology-suppressing Irredente hegemony, each encounters strange beings crouching in the shadow of cruelest repression. What the boy and the fallen cleric separately discover, in the hegemony and beyond, will bring the dark Irredente regime face to face with all that it sought to forbid: genovariant humanity and sentient machines.
