Explore the gripping struggle between good and evil that emerges from the ashes. You'll follow the paths of the remaining few as they are drawn to two opposing leaders: the benevolent Mother Abagail and the sinister Randall Flagg. Uncover the difficult choices they face and the ultimate battle for the soul of what's left of America.
