About “Heroes & villains”

After the apocalypse, the world is divided between the Professors in steel and concrete villages, marauding Barbarians in the jungles, and the mutilated Out People in the burnt scars of cities. Marianne, a Professor's daughter, is taken into the jungle and becomes the captive bride of Jewel, a proud and beautiful Barbarian, where she experiences the savage rituals of snake worshippers, indulges in voluptuous fantasies, and encounters the forbidden fruit of chaos.
