The world of Asante's Gullah Journey. What to know before reading the book.
All my stories are set in the same world. This is a future earth where modern technology is lost. So past history is remembered. But, people live with tech like in the early 1800s.
This is the first story with these characters. So it is independent. The things to know, are that in this world, Libraries have become the most powerful force. Because they have the past knowledge. They attempt to keep the records for society and maintain order. Library scouts are the trained enforcers for the libraries. They are experts with swords and other weapons.
The other thing to know about this story is the Gullah people are real. Along the coast of South Carolina there was a group of escaped slaves who had thier own language known as Gullah or Geechee. They existed in isolated communities into 1900s. There are still some left, today. For the story I imagine the group survives into the future and keeps their culture and independence.
