This is the second disappointment out of two. Yet I can't be sure my dislike for the series thus far isn't due to the atrocious narration by Nanette Savard. She has one voice: strident woman, but she changes it to suit the character: strident crone, strident ape, strident screeching bad guys, etc. What a range, huh?

So how much damage does a narrator who reminds you of everybody's nightmare mother-in-law do to the story?

Can't be sure. I'm going to give Lord of the Isles one more try in a few months.

Oops. Next two were also narrated by Savard. Sigh. I'll try again.

A little more environmentally focused with giant mutant pigs. Still the typical ville and formula but enough changes to be interesting. Ends with Trader separating from the group, which I'm glad for the removal of bad inner conflict.

One of the better Deathland stories. Lots of action and a fair amount of plot.

An average apocalyptic adventure story. This one takes a century after the last war and now there are mutants running around the earth. Recommended
