Category: Jeremiah

Jeremiah and Kurdy are sent, without much information, to retrieve some technical books which may still be in a Denver library. As they’re looking over the books – most of which are surprisingly intact and organized – they’re greeted at gunpoint by a man named Edgar, who claims he’s the librarian. Edgar fears that his visitors are with a group of people who come by and take books to use as fuel for a bonfire. Kurdy quickly promises to help Edgar defend the library, while Jeremiah takes off to hide their land rover and find some friends he met the last time he was in Denver. Kurdy’s mission turns out to be more difficult – and painful – than he anticipated, when he discovers that few of the library’s patrons are willing to defend either Edgar or his books.

Marcus has decided to start slowly bringing the leaders of nearby communities to Thunder Mountain to start letting them in on his renaissance plans. Kurdy and Jeremiah are assigned to pick up the first of these visitors – but they’re alarmed when it turns out to be Theo. However, as they’re bringing her back, an upheaval is occurring within Thunder Mountain’s council – which has been left in the dark about Marcus’ plans. Brothers Thomas and Andrew Kincaid, both on the council, hatch plans for a coup to remove Marcus from the council and install Andrew in his place. And as wary as they are of bringing Theo into Thunder Mountain, they plan to use her to prove their point. But with Marcus, the question remains of who leaked word to the Kincaid brothers of his intentions in the first place…

LogBook entry by Earl Green

Marcus is making plans for a vital summit meeting of community leaders, requiring an all-or-nothing outlay of Thunder Mountain’s resources (particularly vehicles). But what seems like a well-orchestrated plan starts to unravel when Jeremiah and Kurdy uncover evidence that Lee Chen, Marcus’ right-hand man and chief of security, is a double agent for Valhalla Sector, and has removed pages from Simon’s journal of contacts and clues. When Jeremiah confronts Lee with this accusation, Lee disappears from Thunder Mountain – and Kurdy finds the missing journal page, mentioning the Brothers of the Apocalypse and the second coming of the Big Death.

With the summit plans compromised, Marcus now faces the prospect of continuing with his mission and exposing himself and everyone attending the summit to attack. Jeremiah and Kurdy set out to track down the Brothers of the Apocalypse, but do so without Marcus’ blessing – and a warning that they won’t be welcome at Thunder Mountain if they leave the base at this critical moment. Jeremiah is ready to take that risk, but Kurdy is furious with him for making that decision for both of them. Kurdy promises that when Jeremiah has located the Brothers of the Apocalypse, he’s going to take the land rover back to Thunder Mountain, and Jeremiah will be on his own.

The trail of clues leads Jeremiah back to Clarefield and Theo, who tells him where the Brothers have set up their makeshift monastery. Jeremiah and Kurdy do indeed find a group of monks there, all of whom are revealed to be in their forties or older: survivors of the Big Death. And they do, in fact, know that the disease could experience a resurgence soon, this time wiping out all life on Earth.

Elizabeth comes to Clarefield, on assignment to pick up Theo for the summit, but when she learns that Jeremiah and Kurdy have visited Theo, she diverts from her mission and tries to find them. But Lee Chen has tipped off his masters at Valhalla Sector, knowing that Jeremiah and Kurdy will be looking for the Brothers of the Apocalypse, and a vicious ambush ensues. Elizabeth is shot, and Jeremiah discovers that Ezekiel, a mysterious man who has claimed in the past to be his brother, is with the monks. Kurdy, furious that Jeremiah’s reckless risk-taking has left the life of the woman he loves in jeopardy, takes the Land Rover and leaves Jeremiah to fend for himself. Knowing now that the summit is in danger, Jeremiah and Ezekiel set out on foot to try to prevent a disaster.

LogBook entry by Earl Green

Kurdy has to do some fast talking to convince Thunder Mountain’s remaining personnel to stage a desperate assault on Valhalla Sector, with a prisoner exchange – Megan for Marcus, Erin, Jeremiah and Devin – serving as a distraction. But Valhalla Sector’s “President” and his advisors have only released Marcus and Erin, and Kurdy’s lightning raid forces Valhalla Sector’s troops to keep the door open long enough for the helicopter carrying Megan to land…and then the base is sealed off from nuclear, conventional and biological attack. Once inside, Megan grimly sets about the task of making physical contact with as many people as she can. Valhalla Sector’s sealed biosphere is set to open automatically in a matter of days, by which time the Big Death will have been set loose again. But can any survivors trapped inside – namely Jeremiah, Devon and Libby – ever be allowed to leave the base again?

LogBook entry by Earl Green

Jeremiah’s father stays behind with a team at Valhalla Sector to ensure that the facility – and the Big Death outbreak – is secure. Jeremiah and the others return to Thunder Mountain, with Libby and Mr. Smith in tow. Traumatized by her recent reacquaintance with the Big Death, Libby isn’t interested in taking on any new assignments. Devon contacts Marcus to tell him that the other prisoners taken in Valhalla Sector’s raid of the St. Louis meeting are in imminent danger of being killed in a town called Millhaven, one of Valhalla Sector’s frequent supply stops. Familiar with Millhaven, and known to its people as someone from Valhalla Sector, Libby reluctantly agrees to accompany Jeremiah on a mission to distract Millhaven’s leaders while Kurdy and Mr. Smith lead an assault team to rescue Theo and the other prisoners. The mission is successful in terms of releasing the prisoners, but Millhaven’s leader escapes after learning the truth of what happened at Valhalla Sector – and he begins making his own plans.

LogBook entry by Earl Green

Marcus picks up where he left off, trying to unite various communities and factions to stave off the anarchy that has reigned since the Big Death. Counting on Theo for support, Marcus is somewhat surprised when she is uncharactertistically quiet during the contentious meetings. Kurdy, still refusing to work with Jeremiah, insists that Mr. Smith is his new partner, but he’s unaware that his mysterious benefactor has created and begun using a simple camera – and he’s upset when Marcus refuses to accept Smith so readily. Theo and Marcus are especially worried about a town leader named Daniel, who has a dangerous reputation – and a lot of pull with those who have even heard of him. Marcus pairs Kurdy with a man named Trent, and sends them to make contact with a particularly dangerous group – a mission that nearly gets Kurdy killed, something averted only by the sudden appearance of Mr. Smith, who seems to single-handedly disperse the gang holding Kurdy and Trent hostage. When an agent sent by Daniel arrives at Thunder Mountain and tries to steal the thunder from Marcus’ meeting, Theo steps forward to announce her preference for Marcus’ vision of a new world and a new government – because, to everyone’s surprise, she’s pregnant.

LogBook entry by Earl Green

Jeremiah is nervous about his father’s upcoming visit to Thunder Mountain, and yet can barely find words when they have time to talk. Libby interrupts their uneasy reunion, claiming that Devon is needed to fix a technical problem. But her real reason for interrupting, as Jeremiah finds out, is to give him a letter – one written by Devon, in the event of his death, for Libby to someday take to Jeremiah. The letter apologizes for the death of Jeremiah’s mother, killed in an attempt to escape Valhalla Sector with Devon and Simon, the young son of the virologist responsible for the Big Death.

LogBook entry by Earl Green

As promised, Jeremiah “takes over” the town of Millhaven, running it as a far more benevolent community than its previous self-appointed “mayor.” With Marcus’ full support and with Libby in tow, Jeremiah restores freedom and a more neighborly feel to the town, but his reward is skepticism from the townsfolk when an emissary from Daniel arrives to take custody of a traveling family with information about Daniel’s fledgling government. Jeremiah refuses to hand the family over, and the people of Millhaven quickly lose faith in him for fear that they will be on the receiving end of Daniel’s retribution. In the meantime, Kurdy discovers that his new partner, Mr. Smith, has not only been leaving and returning to Thunder Mountain at odd hours, but he’s also created a primitive camera and has been photographing the interior of the base. Kurdy follows Smith out of the mountain, determined to discover the truth about Smith’s secretive agenda.

A celebration is held in Millhaven to honor Jeremiah’s victory over Daniel’s armed thugs. But the party nearly becomes a wake when aman in the crowd, receiving orders from Daniel through a walkie-talkie, tries to assassinate Jeremiah in full view of everyone present. Though Jeremiah is shot, the wound is not fatal, and the gunman then fails to kill himself as ordered. Jeremiah feels that Marcus needs to learn more about Daniel’s movement sooner rather than later, but when Marcus doesn’t act on that suggestion, Jeremiah asks Kurdy and Mr. Smith to help. The three visit a city under Daniel’s control, finding that luxuries such as water and electricity can be found there – but so can dissenters in the ranks of Daniel’s army…at least, Jeremiah hopes so when one of these defectors is taken back to Thunder Mountain.

LogBook entry by Earl Green

Kurdy and Smith convince the leaders of the town of Ridgeway to join Marcus’ alliance to stand up to the spread of Daniel’s forces, promising that Thunder Mountain will stand with them if Daniel threatens. Their next stop is a town where Kurdy feels that Jeremiah’s presence will help to sway the town leaders over to joining the alliance. Libby, pregnant with Jeremiah’s child, insists on going along, though he is troubled by his latest revelation from God. When the four travelers from Thunder Mountain arrive, they find a receptive audience in the town’s leaders, but somehow, Daniel’s thugs, led by the fanatically violent Sims, have learned where Jeremiah and Kurdy are headed next. Jeremiah and Kurdy learn that Ridgeway has all but been wiped off the map by Daniel, and find only a lone survivor. Jeremiah and Kurdy race back to the town, where Smith is helping to organize a defense against Daniel. But Smith is also plagued by his latest revelation, something which tells him that Libby will soon die – but without telling him at whose hands, or why.

LogBook entry by Earl Green

Jeremiah drops everything to pursue vengeance – he’ll stop at nothing to kill Sims in order to avenge Libby’s death. Elsewhere, Sims and his thugs continue their campaign of terror. Marcus and Erin arrive from Thunder Mountain, and Marcus makes a surprising announcement: he’s ready to help Jeremiah find Sims, no matter what it takes. Jeremiah can have his revenge, and the attacks that are steadily eroding confidence in the alliance will come to an end – at least for now. Marcus hatches a plan to draw Sims and his men out into the open, with the intention of either finishing them off or taking prisoners who can tell him more about Daniel’s operation. Jeremiah, on the other hand, may not be feeling merciful enough to take any prisoners…

At Thunder Mountain, Smith learns that he may never regain the use of the arm that took a bullet in his shootout with Libby, a shootout whose details he’s still keeping secret from everyone else. Not so secret is the fact that Thunder Mountain is going to have to raise an army of its own keep standing up against the forces of Daniel – and once enough recruits show up, Kurdy is expected to train them into an effective fighting force. Skeptical of his leadership abilities, Kurdy turns out to be better than anyone else expected of him. But even that may not be enough to keep his recruits alive when they find themselves thrust into a real firefight.

Against his better judgement, Kurdy takes on Chen Lee as backup for his next assignment, returning to a city where he once lived before his travels began with Jeremiah. Chen Lee still hasn’t regained the trust of anyone at Thunder Mountain since his betrayal of the alliance, but Kurdy finds that he’s not much more welcome when he returns to his old stomping grounds. He was a gang member there, but ran for his life – and watched his few friends die – when the gang went from foraging for survival necessities to cold-blooded murder. On the road, Jeremiah is stranded and looks for the nearest town, but when he finds shelter, he’s given drugged food and wakes up in a nicely-furnished home with a wife and son who aren’t his. Everything in the house claims that it’s 2004 – 17 years in the past – and even the woman who’s posing as his wife seems to think that every day she wakes up there is going to be a great day. But no one ever leaves the house, and Jeremiah realizes that this piece of the past is now his prison.
