| Summary | "City of Endless Night" by Milo Hastings is a dystopian novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds in a post-apocalyptic world dominated by a reclusive German civilization, where an unidentified catastrophe has led to the isolation of Germany from the rest of the world. The protagonist, a young chemist drawn into this oppressive society, grapples with the stark realities of a world that has succumbed to rigid caste distinctions, eugenics, and the mysteries of synthetic living. At the start of the narrative, the protagonist reflects upon his childhood education and familial influences while revealing the peculiar geopolitical landscape of his time. The storyline dives deep into the mysterious implications of “The Ray,” a dangerous force that has crippled communication with the once-powerful Germany. Following a tragic turn of events as his uncle dies in a laboratory accident, the protagonist uncovers secrets tied to the cursed potash mines of Stassfurt. Subsequently, his discovery leads him into a treacherous underground world, where he must navigate dangers, including encounters with monstrous German miners, unraveling the disturbing truths of survival and humanity that challenge the very core of his identity and mission.
