A Following Thunder

A 12,000 Word prequel story to the science fiction novel, The Undeniable Labyrinth.

The life of a gregga is as much about luck as it is skill. Abek Goa has had more luck than most scavengers in the lands south of the Icline on the lost world of Makan. The southlands are full of dangers. Buildings in the abandoned cities can collapse around you, your fellow scavengers or anyone you happen to meet could betray you, and of course, the Mechs that destroyed the old world and rule all that is not ice are an every present worry.

Luck as much as anything else has kept Abek alive longer than most of his fellow scavengers. That good luck he's enjoyed so far has just run out. He's going to have to find something else to get him out of the mess he's found himself in now.
