The Uplanders are those that where deemed unworthy of Earth's last remaining haven and left to walk the scorched earth were only the strong survive.Two people now hold the fate of the Uplanders in their hands, one fights to create a single society and bring the cursed down into the vaults and the other fights to leave them to their fate and through his quenchless thirst for power gain total control the vaults. It is a battle that will bring together in unison every class to fight for mans right to exist. This is the story of that battle, this is the story of 'The Wanderer'.

[Alan Shaw · Rating 5 out of 5]

Fantastic, a truly great read. A futuristic look at post nuclear Britain. Full of action and suspense, as three separate stories converse into one for a fantastic ending.

I really highly recommend this book to anyone into good futuristic action adventures.

The best I've read in that category.
