From the publisher:
The Second American Civil War began just after 10 am CST on January 22, 2061. A historic, highly controversial abortion clinic on Ogalada Sioux reservation land was wiped off the map, and it’s RAINBOW Liberty defenders were slaughtered by a post-human terrorist codenamed Life Tank.”

“Each woman must be free to make her own choice; no man may safely decide for her; she must give life gladly to be able to give it well.”
-C. Gasquoine Hartley, The Truth About Women (1913)
Closed: The Manual of Pro-Life Tactical Doctrine
“Outside the comfort zone, the spirit of murder grew, unchecked by those called to establish the law of God.”
-Neal Horsley, circa 2000
It’s the year 2107, less than two decades after the Treaty of Boston brought 30 years of savage sectarian violence and civil war to a close. America struggles to rise from the ashes of the Abortion War, while the rival Lifer and Choicer factions build their own unique cultures from what’s left. The differences between pro-life and pro-choice, between liberal and conservative, between Christian and Pagan, have been sharpened to a killing edge.
