DANGER ZONE

No place on Earth escaped the nuclear Armageddon that spawned the hellscape known as Deathlands. In a ravaged world where violence and lawlessness rule, a rare breed of hero has emerged. Ryan Cawdor is a lethal fighter who lives by a code of honor and fair play, and that has made him a legend….

DEPTH CHARGE

Miles beneath the ocean's surface, a decaying redoubt barely protects Ryan and his companions from a watery death. Battling vicious assaults from cyborgs programmed by artificial intelligence to capture them at any cost, they're desperate to escape this underwater trap. But a new threat awaits above the waves: a massive predark super ship that roams the deadly seas of Deathlands. Decades of madness have led to civil war between the citizens of the upper and lower decks. Now pawns in a bloody game of survival, Ryan and the others must destroy the ship or face their certain end at sea.

This was my first trip through the Deathlands. I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised. This is one of the later books of the series, so I thought I might be a little confused. The book was written in a way that made you feel like you've known these characters for a long time.

The story revoles around the Deathlanders coming on to an under water facility which has an army of cyborgs and a AI system that wants them to stay and repopulate the base. Very nice.

Kind of like two unrelated books in one - the first is well-trod but a fun read, the second is a more original story but ends quickly. Not bad.

One of the better books in this long formulaic series of men's adventure. Not that bad for escapist literature. I have to remember that this series is written by a group of authors with varying skills.

Death lands is one of my guilty pleasures right up there with overly sweet candy. Your day has to look better after visiting in this world. This is one of the better books in the world. Kudos to who ever ghost wrote this one.

Love it

It was like two books in one , out of one predicament and right into another . It's good to see doc so together instead of out of it
