The year is 2068. The place, Fontainebleau forest, ancient home
of some of France’s mightiest monarchs on the outskirts of what
was once Paris. The post-apocalyptic society of Pan survives
by growing rice and scavenging among the ruins of a destroyed
civilization. Their precarious existence comes under threat when
the powerful, technologically advanced Federation of Fortuna
forces them into a dangerous choice—submit to Fortuna’s rule,
or try to best them in a barbaric, ritualized game known as Celestial
Mechanics. Pan’s only hope? A hot-headed outcast they’d rejected
for being “un-Pan”: a girl named Aster.
