A millennia later Stu is discovered, defrosted and finds the world has turned upside down. Humans have devolved into monosyllabic earth-bound brutes. All manner of evolved animals inhabit floating high-tech cities above the earth, with hairless, intelligent bears, descendants of Stu’s brother, the new dominant species. Stunned by the changes he faces, Stu is grudgingly taken in by his great great great great... (you get the idea, right? it’s a LOT of greats) ...grandnephew Al Jr. But even as Stu tries to adapt to his new life, a seemingly incurable plague threatens to destroy all life above earth. Al Jr. and Stu must set aside their differences and embark on a dangerous mission to the surface of the planet, find a cure and save their family... in every sense.
