After the Peace, a story

By Chad Wozniak

After the Peace is set far away in space and time, on Armonea, a very Earth-like planet with many parallels to our own world. The story begins in the year 967 T.A. (for Toi xi Amou, "After the Peace" in the planet's language), after a peace settlement which had finally ended thousands of years of uninterrupted conflict on Armonea. The peace has lasted this long, but when previously unacquainted recent high school graduates Mary and John begin their first travels abroad, they will suddenly be thrown together in circumstances they would never have imagined – caught up in revolution and war.This is a fast-paced story filled with true heroes, ugly villains, suspense, dramatic action, heart-rending tragedy – and tender romance as Mary and John quickly take each other's measure. It is a portrayal in depth of character, courage and love – and their opposites, venality, cowardice and hatred. And it is a truly multi-dimensional love story, not just the two main characters but also their families and the people they meet on a long journey through adversity.
