In a country where women have been exterminated, one little girls remains alive. Her name is Meiji. Her uncles, Eldest, Middle and Youngest, have raised her against all odds. As her buds into puberty, her aging guardians realize they cannot protect her from the vicious Generals who now dominate their world, assisted by artificially created slaves called Drones and marauding bands of witless Boy Soldiers who rove a brutalized landscape through which Youngest and Meiji must travel to escape. Youngest will have dig deep into his resources to ensure their survival. But he has a greater challenge along the way: explaining to Meiji what it means to be female in all- male world and she must learn to control the powerful forces that are being unleashed within herself as she matures.
