Deathlands #68
Shaking Earth
MADNESS OF THE GODS
After a nuclear blast all but vaporized the Western Hemisphere in the late twenty-first century, America became known as Deathlands, a hellhole that has proved itself a formidable foe in the fight for survival--a place where the will to see another day comes down to raw courage and a good aim. Ryan Cawdor and his warrior group roam the vast and violent landscape, fighting to live and living to fight for a better life, knowing that death may not be the only way out, but it's the quickest.
DESTROY THE DESTROYERS
In a land steeped in ancient legend, power and destruction, the crumbling ruins of what was once Mexico City is now under siege by a bloodthirsty tribe of aboriginal muties. Emerging from a gateway into the partially submerged ruins of this once great city, Ryan and his group ally themselves with a fair and just baron caught in a treacherous power struggle with a dangerous rival. An internecine war foreshadows ultimate destruction of the valley at a time when unity of command and purpose offers the only hope against a terrible fate.... In the Deathlands everyone has a future. Some will wish they didn't.

I read this book only once: January 5, 2017 to January 9, 2017.

I am now up to about 85 of the Deathlands books. I always like a good post-apocalyptic story. Deathlands will never be counted as examples of fine literature, but they are an enjoyable way to spend a few hours. Shaking Earth is a pleasant mix of early Mexican history and post-apocalyptic adventure. It seemed to have fewer of the typo's and misused words that I've come to expect. That was a nice surprise. For me, the flaws have become part of the charm of these books, which seem at times to be edited by spell check.

I liked it, but I like all these books I've read. I was kinda hoping that Don Tenorio would join their bunch, though.
