Synopsis
Three centuries after a cataclysm tilted the Earth's axis and destroyed civilization, a lone rider known as Jon Shannow -- the Jerusalem Man -- crosses a savagely reshaped world ruled by brigands and warlords, driven by an obsessive quest to find the lost city of Jerusalem. His path draws him into a settlement's fight for survival and a growing mystery around ancient stones of great and dangerous power.
