Marker Bed: (n) a widespread and unique event or horizon that represents a relatively brief span of geologic time
When the earth is the subject, the best place to study is usually outside
Do you love the earth? You are not alone. So does Jarmo, who reveres the planet nearly as much as he loves Rosie (and Xoix, of course).
Humans are lucky: we have thumbs, allowing us to use tools and manipulate our environment. However, Marker Bed takes place in the future and humans have been extinct for three hundred million years… but thumbs have come again.
Jarmo, a recently graduated geologist, is treading water while Rosie, the most gifted anthropology student in generations, is pursuing her advanced degree under the tutelage of Professor Beeler — a difficult and demanding advisor.
Beeler has recruited a trio of students to survey three drainages on the unexplored Eastern Continent. Each will start at a primitive coastal community, and then journey upstream into the unexplored heartlands to locate additional villages. Jarmo and Xoix — his inseparable, furry companion — will accompany Rosie up the most promising of the rivers.
Even before leaving the coast, Jarmo encounters baffling fossils that had been crafted by processes he does not understand. Follow their adventures as he and Rosie — and Xoix, of course — witness the degeneration of Beeler as he battles his compulsions, and ultimately make an unexpected discovery about the earth’s past.
If you are hoping for a positive future for our planet, Marker Bed is for you. Lock in your copy, and get ready to feel more confident about the earth’s ability to survive us.
