WILD TALES FROM THE IMAGINATION
THE CHRONICALS OF CHIMAERA
They called it evolution... but it was endless war.
When Sapien scientists cracked the genome they unleashed a genetic arms race that ended in global catastrophe.
The Mechanum Genetik unlocked the power of D’NA, turning humanity into gods - and then ghosts...
When the dust cleared from the gene wars, humankind was no more.
All that remained were the tribes of CHIMAERA.
THE CHRONICLES OF CHIMÆRA is the first part of an epic saga set in a post-apocalyptic world populated with anthropomorphic creatures and mythic beasts created by the ancient science of genegineering.
Blending science and sorcery, mythology and biopunk, CHIMAERA is a mutant organism of a story—part samurai epic, part spiritual odyssey, and all fire-forged adventure.
