HOPE'S BATTLEGROUND

Earth's secret history of alien occupation is challenged by a powerful alliance of warriors driven to reclaim humanity's birthright. But when a cruel, vicious ruler spreads a new wave of terror, the Cerberus rebels must fight for their lives.

DEATH BLOOMS

Beautiful, seductive and deadly, she is called Ereshkigal. Her flowerlike temple—eerie and alien—rises out of the desolate, sun-drenched desert of postapocalyptic Spain. The river of blood flowing to her temple doors is just the first sign of the horror to follow. With her army of Terror Priests eager to kill for their queen, Kane, Grant and Brigid must confront her dark power. But Ereshkigal's power to control men's lives may prove stronger than anything the Cerberus warriors have ever faced. And this evil interloper will not be satisfied until she has annihilated everything between her and total domination of Earth.

A guilty pleasure, Outlanders never fail to keep the action going from beginning to end. This was a fun one, but bears little explaining. You either like these books or you don't...

Hell's Maw returns to Cerberus heroes to the horror realm, with a story involving a new variation of the undead. These zombies have been resurrected by advanced mathematics and can also extend their bodies like Mr Fantastic! It's always good when the series moves outside the United States to explore the large post-apocalyptic world and the old Spanish town of Zaragoza is an exotic setting. I liked the details of town's own version of Magistrates, the Pretors.
Plenty of imaginative action and alot of it is extra grisly this time out. The opening with Kane and Brigid fighting an Imperial Walker right out of Star Wars is a highlight, as is the climax inside a bizarre alien fortress. Definitely an above average entry in the series.
