Nathan Yocum (nathanyocum) | 12 comments To celebrate my new cover (and to drum up sales), The Zona will be $0.99 all this week. Check out the greatest post apocalyptic western (set in Arizona) ever written!

An apocalyptic western in AZ? Interesting! I'll go take a look!

What parts of AZ?

The first half takes place in the Mohave Desert(Kingman, Fort Mohave, Yucca, Lake Havasu). The book also has scenes in Tucson, Florence (renamed Purgatory), and Nogales.

I grew up in Arizona, so these areas are near and dear to me. Are you from the Zona?

That's crazy, I lived in Flagstaff for 4 years (college) and basically grew up in Havasu (5th through 12th grade).

Don't you think Yucca already looks like the end of the world?

You're going to get a kick out of the first few chapters, I used a lot of existing land marks.

Interesting! I've downloaded a sample and have it loaded on my iPad!
