Blow Back the Blood Winds!

On the planet Duisberg, the Blood Winds—barbarians that sweep in from the desert and reduce civilization to rubble—are about to blow once more. It is up to Abel Dashian—with help from the spirit of Raj Whitehall and a powerful computer known as Center—to stop the tide of barbarians from destroying his people. To do so, he must conquer the very land of his origin and destroy the A.I. “god” who has doomed his world to an everlasting Dark Age. Abel is a heretic, but now he must become—THE SAVIOR.
