comment
A series of books by John Ringo that takes place in the 41st century. Advanced nanotechnology, teleportation, and other technologies which are essentially Clarke's law made real have created a utopian society. All of this is controlled and coordinated by an Artificial Intelligence called Mother.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A factional split between two groups within the Council, the group that partially controls Mother, results in all-out war, including cutting off power to the rest of the world, which in turn results in everyone being Brought Down to Normal. Some people die instantly when their protection or systems fail. Others die from the ensuing battles with the Social Darwinist faction of New Destiny.The series follows the Council members as they fight the New Destiny faction, and the Muggles who just try to survive the Fallen world, using methods vaguely remembered from historical reenactments.The series thus far includes: There Will Be Dragons (2003) Emerald Sea (2004) Against the Tide (2005) East of the Sun, West of the Moon (2006)The series is not to be confused with the other Council Wars, which is what happened when racism met Chicago's machine politics in the worst possible way.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

Anyone Can Die
 Council Wars / int_1237828f
comment
Anyone Can Die: And does. None of the primary protagonists (yet), but some have had some very close calls. Some have the hope of being brought back, once the Net is back up, although there's no guarantee of that. Most everyone else is Deader Than Dead, though.

comment
Always Chaotic Evil: Although most of New Destiny's forces were Changed against their will and are innocent victims, Celine designed them this way and so they get no mercy from the Good Guys because there's no way to Change them back unless the war is won.

Author Appeal: The story stops at some length so Herzer can go into a rambling discourse about his extremely dominant heterosexuality in the sack.
