Maddaddam: Story, Cast and Series Facts

Story and premise

At the center of Maddaddam, are the events leading up to the near destruction of mankind and civilization by a malicious bioengineered pandemic. The catalyst for it all is Crake, a brilliant and complicated young man so disturbed by the injustices of the world that he spends his young life developing a virus that will wipe out humans and replace us with a new species of hominid. The series not only looks at the events that lead up to that big moment, referred to in the books as the "waterless flood," but also what happens after — including who and what shall inherit the earth.
