Lifestyle is reminiscent of the Middle Ages, but small artifacts from the Modern Age are still used, such as watches. Human society is largely pastoral, with few habitations larger than villages, and what little industry exists is conducted under the watchful presence of the Tripods. The story of The Tripods is a variation on post-apocalyptic literature, wherein humanity has been enslaved by "Tripods" - gigantic three-legged walking machines, piloted by unseen alien entities (later identified as " Masters"). The first two were the basis of a science fiction TV series, produced in the United Kingdom in the 1980s. The Tripods is a series of young adult novels written by John Christopher, beginning in 1967.
