It’s that crazy time in the future when the world’s gone ta hell in a big ole purse. The only humans left over is good ole boys and gals and their kin, lovin’, fightin’, eatin’ Q, an huntin’ their flesh eatin’, upwardly-mobile enemies–the Yumbies. This here edition of the ever-growin’ Bubbas of the Apocalypse saga asks the question y’all probably didn’t care ‘bout at all–“What happened to bubbas that weren’ in the good ole US of A when the plague hit? What trials and tribulations must the bubbas of the future deal with when they have to live in distant lands where there ain’t no Wal-Marts to raid, and more Yumbies than you can shake a stick at?”
This here book takes a look-see at bubbas fighting to survive in hostile foreign lands, like France and Ascrackastan and Hewiua just ta name a few.
