COVID Aftermath is a post-apocalyptic science fiction thriller series exploring humanity's future, as the characters face a harsh transmuted COVID pandemic world in which cultural and spiritual value conflicts arise. David Pan, the author, starts the story in his first book Game of Blood at Shanghai where an international cast of characters from North America, Europe, India, and China find a way to survive in this new era. For hard-core tech and history fans, some of the emerging technologies in AI, robotics, communications, and IoT are widely applied, juxtaposed with thousands of years of ancient wisdom and cultural heritage.
