About The Ferryman
The islands of Prospera lie in a vast ocean: in splendid isolation from the rest of humanity, or whatever remains of it... Surrounded by sun, and sea, and stars, their world is perfect. But every paradise comes at a price. When the truth behind theirs is revealed, it will end a way of life, and start a revolution that will change the course of humanity itself. And it will all begin with one person hearing these simple words: "The world is not the world..."
