A Ring is in the sky, the United States launched a nuclear attack on itself, and Arthur just wants life to be normal.

In the Year Zero, the Ring appeared in Earth's skies. The United States has fallen apart, and the world endures nuclear winter. In Year 8, Arthur, born and raised in Portland, Oregon and son of the former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, seeks a better life in the Holy State of Zion, the new capital of scientific advancement, which claims to be a "sanctuary for the righteous."

However, this "sanctuary" does not appear to be what it seems.

Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home!
