Nature always fights back. Even after mankind had scorched the Earth with nuclear fire, the forests regrew. New life now flourishes where it can, strange and savage.

The distant descendants of the last survivors of Armageddon now live high in the interconnected branches of the vast forest, eeking out a simple existence.

The Story Tellers passed on tales of the Giants, and the Time of the Great Lights, but there is little or no understanding of what has gone before; the old world erased and forgotten.

Kel and his new friend Moss embark on a journey to discover whether there is any truth in the ancient tales - and what they discover is beyond their wildest imaginings

There are three stories that were written to form a loose series called The Sapient Continuum - Transplant, Greenways, and The Tribe (formerly known as The Inosculation Syndrome). Purists would listen to them in that order, but Reynolds-Moreton has crafted his tales so cleverly that they can be listened to in any order, or just those that you choose.

Fans of prequels might enjoy listening to The Tribe first. The astute listener may even find nods to this series in his other books, of which we’re proud to publish over 20 at the time of writing this introduction.
