Greatwinter

The series is set in the 40th century, with action taking place in both North America and Australia, called "Australica". The Greatwinter Series has certain steampunk-like elements, such as a rejection of electrical and steam or combustion technologies throughout the series, focusing instead on wind-, solar-, or man-powered devices and technologies. This is achieved through the plot device of orbiting machines which destroy anything detected as electronics, assumed created during a war at some point earlier.
