Something happens (we never know what) and makes ALL technology, from engines to digital watches, fail mankind. What happens next as people struggle to find peaceful places to forage/plant food was a tale of survival and of love for our brothers/sisters.

The Wicca angle was a little too much, and the writing was HORRIBLE. All of a sudden people would join the conversation when I thought they were not even in the area. The Wiccans waxed poetic (in addition to their Wicca stuff), and it was annoying.

The story was cool though.
