Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Doomsman" by Van Tassel Sutphen is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds in a post-apocalyptic world where civilization has collapsed due to an event known as the Great Change, and human culture has regressed into feudal-like structures populated by different factions. The protagonist, Constans, a young man of noble birth, navigates a landscape filled with danger and conflict, particularly involving a group known as the Doomsmen. At the start of the narrative, Constans is introduced as he sits on a beach, contemplating the dark, mysterious horizon that suggests something ominous. This opening scene quickly escalates into an intense encounter when he is attacked by an assailant, prompting a thrilling chase through the woods as Constans tries to evade capture. Alive with the urgency to warn his family about the imminent threat posed by the Doomsmen, he later learns of alarming troubles concerning his sister, Issa. Through vivid descriptions and action-driven storytelling, the opening sets the stage for a world dominated by danger, familial loyalty, and the shadow of a bleak history, priming readers for the unfolding intrigue in the life of Constans and the impending clash of civilizations.
