Pernicious Archetype

More than two hundred years after Skydark, the hybrid barons cling tenuously to their waning influence, losers in an internecine war to control nuke-shattered America. A new threat has emerged, one whose intimate knowledge of preDark technology fuels a grim new bid for power. To begin, he must penetrate the central nerve node of a small and dedicated band of warriors fighting to free Earth's survivors of long-ago devastation from slavery and misery . . .

Force Resolute

Cryogenically preserved before the nukes obliterated their own way of life, an elite team of battle-hardened American fighting men have now been reactivated for duty, commanded by this supreme manipulator. Their first mission in a tortured new world: move in and secure Cerberus Redoubt and the mat-trans network at any cost. In a world where trust is hard-won and harder kept, Kane and his fellow exiles must convince Team Phoenix that they are on the same side — for humanity, and against the hybrids and their willing human allies.

The story of a relatively minor event in the overall awakening with a somewhat anticlimactic ending. Despite a shallow plot, I found this to be tight, relatively linear and action packed. No obnoxious never-ending introspection, only marginal jumping from one POV to the next, minimal backstory, ordinance descriptions not too overdone...so whats not to like? Probably not for everyone, but I liked it.

I was torn between a 3 and 4 star review for this book. It greatly exceeded my expectations, but I'm not staying up at night thinking about it. A great little guilty pleasure, action packed and exciting.

Set in the same world as the Deathlands series. These books follow another set of adventures in the post holocaust world. Good men's adventures series. Recommended
