This is another triumph in the deathlands tales. The writer is definately different and somewhat better, the storyline is stronger than in past novels and everything is told so well that it was more fun than usual reading these novels. I love them all and everything this author or people using his name print. They are a group of talented writers and are on the top of their game in the action/adventure new wave genre.
Fast paced, hard hitting action/adventure...engrossing!

The person who likes fast-paced, hard-hitting action and adventure will not be able to put this book, or any of Axler's Deathlands series down. I have read all but a couple of the very early titles, as well as his Earthblood trilogy and am on the second of his Outlander's series...all great and published about every other month. Highly recommended for those who enjoy getting lost in a good yarn with vivid writing, and no slow down, that leaves you turning pages well past your bedtime...much to my chargin many mornings. Essentially "blood, guts and gore" in nature with a good story line that follows the trials of a small group of "survivors" in a series of stories set a hundred years in the future following a nuclear holocaust. Basic survivalism with instinct, common sense, and preholocaust weapons to keep you alive. I challenge anyone to just try and put one of Axler's novels down
