📱 eBook en inglés THE SCARLET PLAGUE

"The world was full of people... and then, in a moment, the world was empty."
The year is 2073. An old man, clad in goatskins and wandering the ruins of a wild California, tells his skeptical, savage grandsons about a world they can hardly imagine: a world of airships, teeming cities, and a miracle called "science." He is Professor James Howard Smith, one of the few survivors of the "Scarlet Death" that decimated the global population in 2013. As he recounts the terrifying speed with which the plague spread and the brutal chaos that followed, London delivers a stark warning about the fragility of our modern world and the enduring power of nature.
A Blueprint for Post-Apocalyptica: Jack London was the first to master the "shattered world" aesthetic. He describes iconic landmarks like the San Francisco Bay Area reclaimed by forests and wolves. The novel explores the "Great Regression," where the descendants of scholars and billionaires have become illiterate hunters, losing the hard-won knowledge of their ancestors in just two generations.
The Biological Terror: Unlike many Victorian "plague" stories, London focuses on the terrifying efficiency of the pathogen. The Scarlet Death kills within hours, turning the skin red and paralyzing the body. Through the Professors eyes, we witness the terrifying realization that no amount of wealth or technology can stop a microscopic enemy once it reaches critical mass.
