    Summary

    “These violent delights have violent ends
    And in their triumph die, like fire and powder,
    Which as they kiss consume. The sweetest honey
    Is loathsome in his own deliciousness
    And in the taste confounds the appetite.
    Therefore love moderately; long love doth so;
    Too swift arrives as tardy as too slow.” - William Shakespeare

     

    Ten years ago, the world fell into the deep darkness of a sunless sky after an eclipse.
    On the seventh day, it was over.
    But it's aftermath changed humankind forever.

    A meeting between two young boys, one from each side of that ruptured society, lights a fuse that threatens that oppresive order that divides them.
    Simon and Wilhelm, forged by their midst, find an unexpected familiarity in each other.
    But that thing that binds them will either thrive, or become their doom.

    They called the lunar eclipse that had lasted for a week "The Arrival".

    Prequel to "Bittersweet Ecstasy". Can be read as a stand alone.
