Endworld #1
Endworld: Lord of Ends
To survive in the Ends, ex-military Cutter must assemble a team of women, both human and mutated Enders.
A nuclear blast has transformed the world into a barren wasteland. Survival depends on your ability to kick ass and take names.
Radiation transforms select humans into mutated creatures who are banished from society--Enders. The males are libido-less wild animals incapable of satisfying the females, who are hot, forward and badass.
Cutter has kept to himself for ten years, avoiding the conflict with a sharp tongue, stiff drink and his two best friends, his six-shooters Alpha and Beta. But the perils of the wastelands won't leave him the f--- alone. Two sisters, one human and one Ender, offer him a generous salary to protect them as they set off on a doomed peace mission. It's an offer he can't refuse, even as he knows there's no chance in hell of their succeeding.
All the odds are stacked against them, but Cutter soon learns his destiny is to be more than just a bodyguard, even if it involves forging together a crack team of gorgeous human and Ender operatives who will make the insane mission much more pleasurable.
Warning: Contains a harem.

Action-packed, no holds barred
This was a story that started at a laconic drawl and sped up to an auctioneer's pitch. In an apocalyptic setting, after a nuclear bomb has devastated the earth, society has been separated into two Factions. The humans and those who have mutated from the radiation-the Enders. A human only organisation, the Rising, seeks to eradicate the Enders. The story of two women who seek out a loner in order to complete a vision quest of bringing peace between the two groups. Cutter is hired to protect these women, Hannah and Gehn, as they seek to fulfill their dream. Whilst they travel, those they encounter have other plans for this trip, seeking to delay their goal at any cost. Some editing errors, but they do not overly detract from the reading experience.

Great story
The author has wrote a book that’s very dynamic and thought provoking. Much of the turmoil we experience and see nowadays has been brought together in a very good story.Dam it was a good story! Can’t wait for book two.

Cutter just wants to be left alone… until he doesn’t. Two mysterious women offer him a good wage (and the promise of intimate companionship) to aim his gun-slinging skills at their next task: returning peace to a war-torn, post-apocalyptic world split between those who survived the nuclear blast, and those who mutated into Enders.
The story launches right into the action, with a Wild West-style barroom brawl that sets the stage for a story full of gunplay, ramshackle saloons, and dried up towns full of untrusting and untrustworthy characters. Cutter initially has no inclination to leave his familiar watering hole, but the two women that came looking for him have a way of changing his mind.
Hannah is a blonde bombshell with a centerfold’s body, a sharp intellect, and an assassin’s grace. She’s the more extroverted of the pair, while Gehn masks certain aspects of her true nature beneath a layer of shyness. Gehn is an Ender, and her mutant / monster qualities are revealed subtly at first. As the story unfolds, we learn a lot more about these girls and what they’re capable of.
The writing in Endworld is solid and the editing is clean. It’s a fun, western-meets-post-apocalyptic tale of overlapping rival factions and setting old wrongs right. The narration is a little long on backstory from time to time, telling the reader about how the world as we knew it devolved into its present state. While the world-building is interesting, these intermittent history lessons are a minor drag on the story’s pacing.
The bad guys are universally heartless and self-serving, which is credible enough for a handful of shrewd killers happy to take a resource-deprived wasteland and capitalize on whatever opportunities they can find amidst everyone else’s suffering. They stand at the helm of a brewing war that Cutter and his allies can’t likely avoid.
Cutter carries a few old associates and rivals into the mix, a loyal pet canine, and a growing cadre of alluring women with insatiable appetites. Be warned: guns, knives, and thugs lurk behind every turned page, and no one in the story is immune from violence and gore.
There are also a handful of explicit sex scenes which help bring the characters closer together. The first such scene erupts seemingly out of nowhere, but things shape up more naturally after that.
All told, Endworld’s beginning makes for an entertaining series starter with the promise of more women, more bullets, and more political intrigue as the war ahead takes shape.

3 There is certainly a good idea and or plot in this book But, sadly, for me, the internal running dialogue by the hero didn’t ring true at all. The time line seems a little odd as was the reactions of the various characters. It grew very obvious the more I read of the book so could not finish it.

Started off good but terribly written end fight.
This started off really well, I liked the main character and his dog. The author obviously has very little knowledge of guns. Most guys I know who make their guns usually use unusual female names so it is weird the main character names his guns alpha and beta. Then he states later on, when the main character takes a shotgun from a dead foe, that shotguns are not accurate weapons. Obviously the author doesn't know shotguns can be more deadly than a assault rifle in the right situation. Then there is the lack of cars, or modern guns and it is just 10 years after the atomic war. Also the main character is supported to be this bad was and get gets his was kicked over and over. The last fight in the story is another example, you expect this big gun fight, and the main character to show what a bad was gunslinger he is. It was a huge let down with what terrible ending fight he chose to write. Highly disappointed especially after his friend dies there is no sense of loss, mortgage a 4 way, instead of mourning the loss. Could have been so much better ending for a good start of a story.

3 stars, I will read the next book, I like the author, but...
The book has misspelling and typos... they are pretty obvious ones, makes me think he rushed through this with no spell check, or even a care about how it read. This makes it hard to read. Thinking about the sloppiness makes me believe that hes pumping it out so quick to sell, rather than to be enjoyed. I get that's how Amazon works, especially with kindle unlimited, but come on.... your a published author, take some pride in your work and dont rush garbage out, at least proof read it! All that aside the book was decent, I'm interested in the story even though it seems like something pulled from the plotline of fallout.

The book would have been a lot better if the author had kept track of his information better...
For example at one point a bartender tells them where they need to go have a dream interpreted later on the MC talking to one of the women makes it sound like she was the one who knew the dream interpreter.
There are more than a few instances like this. The wrong woman's name is used, details changed and a ton of other inconsistencies.
Plus the MC's inner thoughts seem to be about 60% filler.

Good book
This is a good book. You should read it. I like the story. The characters are fun. unfortunately I found the MC to be a bit dumb at times. A little too “Leroy Jenkins”.
