The Excavations: A History of the End of the World

Description

Jack Delfan is an unwitting Noah who has turned his back on the world of men. He lives in an oil tanker in a sea of sand. He believes in digging. When a son, Hob, is delivered to him, Delfan teaches the boy how to use a spade and read the book. Delfan is a difficult father and refuses to tell Hob who his mother is. Then the Gcwi come.

Hob and the Gcwi set out on a quest to find Hob’s mother. It is a journey that is destined to break Hob’s heart. But there are times when a broken heart is what it takes.

The Excavations is a savage, explicit, coming-of-age tale. It delves into the history of the world and into its future.
