Warriors of the Apocalypse — Anthony Giangregorio

No one knows who first dropped the bombs, or released the first nuclear warheads, and no one probably will. Not that it matters. In the blink of an eye, the modern world was destroyed, leaving behind a wasteland of death and destruction. Electricity, cable television, and restaurants, all gone in an instant, to be replaced by a lawless planet filled with cannibals, slavers and mutants-lost souls who were too close to the initial blasts and are now nothing but feral animals that walk upright, with seeping open wounds that cover them from head to toe. Hank Summers was one of the survivors, a hard man who adapted quickly to the new world. With his companions, Laurie, Stewart and Carl, they travel the nukescape, searching for something better on the horizon. A new dark age has dawned with the hope that tomorrow may bring salvation to the survivors, but after the apocalypse, hope may not be enough.
