When Technology Fails, Magic Returns

It is 2036, Year of the Fire Dragon. The world of technology has run its course, and the eternal astronomical cycle is about to revert to what it has been many times over in the past. Technology ends. But where one thing is lost another is gained. The fairy stories, myths and legends of the past are about to return. What will a world of billions do when the electricity won’t flow and modern tools and weapons lie inert, and monsters walk the land? Most will perish. Many people will revert to their true nature both mentally and physically becoming races long lost. Elves, dwarves, orcs, and trolls are now common. Software consultant Jack Adams finds himself stranded far from his Arizona home in a very special hotel in Tokyo, Japan. He discovers new powers and new challenges. Jack’s sister in Arizona is also struggling in the changed world as monstrous creatures walk the land. But not all monsters are foes, and not all humans are friends. Jack wants to return home to help her but faces many challenges in Tokyo that also need his help. But he is not alone. New friends also have powers Together they must carve a new existence in a world of chaos. The Reversion has arrived.
