Many years have passed since civilization's brush with apocalypse. The world's greatest threats have all been silenced. There is no anger, no hatred, no war. There is only perfect peace... and fear. But a terrible secret has been closely guarded for centuries: Every single soul walking the earth, though in appearance totally normal, is actually dead, long ago genetically stripped of true humanity. Fleeing pursuit, with only moments to live, a young man named Rom stumbles into possession of a vial of blood and a piece of cryptic writing. When consumed, the blood will bring him back to life. When decoded, the message will lead him on a perilous journey that will require him to abandon everything he has ever known and awaken humanity to the transforming power of true life and love. But the blood will also resurrect hatred, ambition, and greed.

"En el año 2005, especialistas en Genetica descubrieron el gen humano que controla el temor innato y adquirido. Se denomino Estatmina u Oncoproteina 18. En 15 años se identificaron de forma similar todos los genes que influyen en las principales emociones. Cerca de una decada despues, tras una guerra catastrofica que destruyo gran parte de la civilización, la humanidad prometio renunciar a todo lo que habia conspirado para su destruccion. De las cenizas surgio un nuevo mundo del que fueron eliminadas las tecnologias avanzadas y las emociones apasionadas que llevaron a su ruina. Un mundo sin odio, sin malicia, sin afliccion, sin ira. En general, la unica emocion que geneticamente se permitio sobrevivir fue el temor. Durante 480 años, reino la paz perfecta. Hasta ahora..."--amazon.com
