More than a century after a multi-warhead nuclear strike wiped out nearly all the earth's population, humanity's feral instinct to survive has spawned a savage new America. Here, the brutality of man and nature conspire against hope. Yet despite its chaos and bloody turmoil, Deathlands is a second chance for the human race... and for a group of warrior survivalists led by a man called Ryan Cawdor.
MANIFEST DOOMSDAY
Deathlands is a living hell, but there is someplace worse: a parallel Earth where the atomic mega-cull never happened. Now this Otherworld Earth is in its final death throes. Yet for an elite few, the reality portal offers a new frontier of raw energy, expendable slaves - a bastion of power of Dredda Otis Trask. Her invasion force of genetically engineered warrior women has turned ruins of Salt Lake City into the deadly mining grounds of a grotesque new order - one that lies in wait for Ryan and his companions.
In the Deathlands, danger lurks beyond the imagination.
It somehow took me 9 months to read this book. I bought it as a used English-language book shop in Bangkok for 29 baht because I wanted some trashy science fiction. And boy did this deliver! It's an easy read. I'd read a chapter and then put it down and forget about for for a few weeks, then find it and read two or three more chapters, then lose interest and do the same again.
Should you read it? Well, I honestly don't even know how to answer that. I doubt many bookstores have it. And most people who are in the market probably have already read the first several dozen of the series. If you stumble into it for really cheap, go for it. But I wouldn't go out of your way or pay full price for it.
Ryan and his band of companions must fight a new threat in a race of genetically engineered she/he women modified to be stronger faster and tougher than male or female using black battle suits "The Sisters" are bringing new rule to all of DeathLands....and they want Ryan's seed to fertilize their chrono frozen eggs.....Good Book
