Kickass!!!!!!

I loved!!!this book . it hit me as an awesome post apocolyptic America with a nice storyline....then after reading about 20 more of the books I realized that im gonna have to buy the whole series!!!(which is about 150 books) this series has an awesome plot thta will keep you up at night reading from chapter to chapter and Book to book...Its TOTALLY awesome

Where it all began

this is number one in the deathlands series, which is still going strong at number 60. Within this book is were all the main characters are brought to life for the first time. although this book was actually written by two different authors i think that once you pick this book you will be wanting to read the second book before midnight!!!! All in all this is pure sc fi adventure

The Grandfather of them all

The first in a long line of Deathlands books. You will notice I do not call them novles because while they are enjoyable they hardly qualify as "War and Peace". Here for the first time we meet Ryan Cawdor, basically a one eyed crazy man frontman for a firm(but fair) warlord named "The Trader". We are also introduced to J.B Dix, Kysty, Do , Hun and many others. The author manages to paint a very vivid picture of a world affected by Nuclear War and this book has (by far) the best plot and charecter development of any other in the serise. Overall-If you liked William W. Johnstone you will like this book.

Great Reading

One of the better books I have read this year, Pilgrimage to Hell is a great novel for anyone into post-nuclear holocaust fiction. For anyone who has played the PC roleplaying games Fallout and/or Fallout 2, this is basically like 'reading' the game. Great stuff. The ending was a little weak, but made me want to go out and pick up the second book in the series, which is a good thing. I was reading this book whenever I could fit in time after work, I highly recommend it.

Gritty, well written, futuristic sci-horror

The beginning happens with the end. Instead of starting the novel with the reader scratching his head, the author does the favor of giving a history.A nuclear war destroys society as we know it. The book picks up with the remnants of civilization, 100 years after the war.A greedy baron and his henchmen attack the main characters, forever altering the course of their lives. Their adventures take them all over the shattered continent of North America, dealing with mutants and monsters...losing and gaining friends along the way.The first book was by far the best. The series still kept my attention 15 books later...but now I see that Axler has written a *lot* more material.A must read...but definitely a "guy" book. (No offense to the TomBoys out there)
