Survival in America's nuke-blasted frontier is both a curse and a salvation for Ryan Cawdor and his warrior companions. Though the basic needs of existence must be fought for and won with blood -- each day alive means another chance to seek refuge and a better way of life in a hostile and brutal world, where hope still fires the human heart.
FOUL IMPETUS
In the relatively untouched area of what was once Niagara Falls, Ryan and his fellow wayfarers find the pastoral farmland under the despotic control of a twisted baron and his slave-breeding farm. Ryan, Mildred and Krysty are captured by the baron's sec men and pawned into the cruel frenzy of their leader's grotesque desires. JB, Jak and Doc enlist the aid of outlanders to organize a counter strike -- but rescue may come too late for them all.
In the Deathlands, you are sentenced to your destiny from the moment of birth . . .
As literature, these books suck, but they're awesome if you just want to escape your humdrum existence for a nuked landscape crawling with mutants, weirdos, and time travelers. Oh, there's also little mutie magic thrown in. Unfortunately, Skydark Spawn is rather raunchy, but it is a fun read anyway.
Don’t let this book be your entry into the series. If you were to skip it, you’d not miss much. There’s no real character development and the content is unfortunate - filled with too many sex acts.
