Wasteland, Book 3: Black Steel in the Hour of Chaos — Antony Johnston

"The third electrifying collection of Antony Johnston and Christopher Mitten''s sci-fi western epic arrives! One hundred years after the world-changing catastrophe known as the ""Big Wet"", the city of Newbegin faces its most dangerous challenge yet—an army of Sand-Eaters bent on destruction! Jakob joins the Watch to defend the city, and intrigue grips the council, as politics, religion, and high explosives combine to make a book that The Onion AV Club said, ""Radiates in about a dozen conceptual and philosophical dimensions at once... in essence and execution, it rivals Hayao Miyazaki''s masterful epic Nausicaä""!"
