The Night Land
This sounds like an amazing setting but I canβt help but kinda wonder about the stated abhumans origins
Other living things have been seen in the darkness, some of unknown origins, and others that may once have been human. Hodgson uses the term "Abhuman" to name several different species of intelligent beings evolved from humans who interbred with alien species or adapted to changed environmental conditions, and are seen as decayed or maligned by those living inside the Last Redoubt.
Aliens...the idea of Earth once having contact with aliens and now long since abandoned as a desolate wasteland... probably living it up with the rich humans who got off planet in some space-structure built around a giant power generator made around collapsed stars.
Or gone all transhumanist
Meanwhile the inhabitants of Earth cling on, alone, abandoned...awaiting the end.
