Sequel to 2000 Baker in which the survivors of the catastrophe struggle to establish new lives while defending themselves against and being supported by the old gods and demons. This novel follows some characters from the previous one from where they were left there until they find the central protagonist of that novel. Then the focus becomes the struggle to rid their new community of the demons attacking them.

A post-catastrophe novel in which much of the human race has been destroyed in retaliation for its destruction of nature. The novel follows one survivor as he traverses New Zealand from the North to the South meeting other survivors (both those who are trying to build renewed lives and those preying on others) until he settles into a community that is creating a healthy new eutopia. The M{\={a}}ori gods are active participants in the action, in initially bringing about the destruction and in both assisting and attacking the surviving remnant. The most successful of the surviving groups are those who are able to access traditional M{\={a}}ori ways of life. See also 2006 Baker. A story by Keri [Ann Ruhi] Hulme, \“Getting It,\” in her Stonefish (Wellington, New Zealand: Huia Publishers, 2004), 87-104 also shows the catastrophe brought about by the revenge of the M{\={a}}ori gods on human destruction of the environment.
