The Leftover World

In the past, a once thriving world fell into darkness. Hundreds of years later those survivors cobbled together civil townships upon the backs of child slaves. Dallas was placed into the care of the ranch - a place for orphans to be rented as chattel, to be used by farms and mines, often at the expense of kindness and patience.

In this world there is little hope for a life of willful determination and self-imposed destiny. But, there are some who by strength of will break their bonds and flee from the ranch. They are pursued by their guards and fall headlong into a coming war.

Standing between the primitive farming communities and destruction are a handful of youngsters led by a rogue army officer. He called himself a ranger, and taught his recruits the woodland arts, but will they be able to stem the tide of a conquering army bent on making one man the dictator over what remains of all the fallen colonies?

Will those who ran off the ranch, a band of rangers, reborn into this violent land, wield the tech of old, and retake the lands lost to them, and time?
