Description
Introduction · · · · · ·
The earth's climate suddenly changed, turning into a freezing hell. The surviving humans hid in a train driven by a perpetual motion machine, running endlessly on the frozen land. Once it stopped, everyone would freeze to death. Inside the train, people living in the last carriage suffered from overcrowding, dirtiness and hunger, and lived a life without dignity. Prolov couldn't stand it anymore, so he broke the glass and tried to escape to the front carriage.
However, as he moved towards the front of the train, everything he saw shocked and confused him: the coffee, tobacco, botanical garden, aquarium, library that should have disappeared long ago... turned out to still exist on the train; people paid fanatical worship to the sacred perpetual motion machine, as if it were a new religion; and the people in the last carriage were able to survive only because of food of questionable origin... The closer he got to the front of the train, the closer he got to the answer to the mystery of fate.
The closed train envelops the entire human society, and no one can escape the fate of wandering. Where will the Snowpiercer take the last humans?
