Review Summary
David Archibald, dying of cancer, is frozen alive in 1999. He is re-animated 900 years into the future, in a post-apocalyptic techno-feudal society. He must fight to change this society and bring on a second Renaissance, or get killed.

He gains allies, finds love and fights in many violent battles against the forces of corruption and tyranny... and eventually, becomes a legend under the nickname "Darc".
