Set after a war which had nearly wiped out all of civilization, this story follows a Nightwatcher, Cato-one of the few people put in place to protect the little bits of salvageable land. They guard their lands atop high medieval walls, never looking inward-never knowing what exactly they are protecting. When an army breaks through the front gate, Cato's life is completely changed. He awakes within the walls, in a place he has never seen. A girl named Adalyn finds him and takes him on an adventure that explores the ins and outs of the world, centered around the city he had protected all of his life: Prevnaar Tribeck. Cato will learn who his parents are, what the city he has protecting is actually like, and what its like to live a normal life in the world after the war-a world that is almost entirely broken to pieces. He will quickly learn one thing above all else: there is no shortage of death in this new world.
