400 years in the future, the last of Humanity will live behind the protective walls of Bregna, an idyllic utopia built to shelter them from the deadly jungle growing beyond. Life in Bregna is perfect, or as perfect as the government can make the people believe. But not everyone is fooled by their mood-altering propaganda -- a small band of freedom fighters wish to see things change, and they just might manage to pull off this impossible dream with the help of their top secret agent, the sexy, deadly AEON FLUX.
Reintroducing the cult-classic action heroine best known for her animated adventures on MTV, this series will pave the way for her big-screen debut in this fall’s blockbuster, live action adaptation starring Charlize Theron.

As Bregnan authorities prepare a new weapon to use against the jungle pounding at their walls, Aeon prepares to turn their plans against them. But this time she is not alone – she has been instructed to train a new agent, a fiery young woman named Sithandra, who may not be all that she appears to be…

Press Statement from the Author:
"Aeon Flux is one of the most dynamic action heroes out there, and the futuristic world she inhabits is a playground of bizarre and fascinating adventures just waiting to be told.
From her first appearance in Peter Chung's brilliant animated shorts to her upcoming incarnation in MTV's live action feature film, she has become one of the most intriguing characters to ever kick flip her way out of trouble.
The twisted conspiracies and unclear agendas that were so signature to the cartoon are given some meaty and satisfying continuity in the film, and this book will help bridge the two with an adventure that reintroduces Aeon to fans and newcomers alike.
I became an instant fan of the character when she first appeared on Liquid Television, and was sorely disappointed when the series was cancelled. It was so imaginative and unconventional – way ahead of its time. Now, hopefully, her time has come!"
