   "After the 'war with no name' a cat assassin searches for his     
   lost love in Repino's strange, moving sci-fi epic that channels     
   both Homeward Bound and A Canticle for Leibowitz.   
      
   "The 'war with no name' has begun, with human extinction as its   
   goal. The instigator of this war is the Colony, a race of   
   intelligent ants who, for thousands of years, have been   
   silently building an army that would forever eradicate the   
   destructive, oppressive humans. Under the Colony's watchful   
   eye, this utopia will be free of the humans' penchant for   
   violence, exploitation and religious superstition. As a final   
   step in the war effort, the Colony uses its strange technology   
   to transform the surface animals into high-functioning two-   
   legged beings who rise up to kill their masters.   
      
   "Former housecat turned war hero, Mort(e) is famous for taking   
   on the most dangerous missions and fighting the dreaded human   
   bio-weapon EMSAH. But the true motivation behind his   
   recklessness is his ongoing search for a pre-transformation   
   friend-a dog named Sheba. When he receives a mysterious message   
   from the dwindling human resistance claiming Sheba is alive, he   
   begins a journey that will take him from the remaining human   
   strongholds to the heart of the Colony, where he will discover   
   the source of EMSAH and the ultimate fate of all of earth's   
   creatures."
