He did that whole 'trying to get revenge on the Godwalkers' thing five years ago, and failed miserably.But when the Godwalkers show back up for their own bit of revenge - and Killbilly bandits appear trying to impose a pepper tax - the tough-as-bones loner decides enough is enough. It's time to reassemble the team, kick some much needed ass, and put an end to the alien threat once and for all.Or die trying.Join Sterling as he travels across the arid Southwest on his skeletal horse, getting glimpses and insights into what the before people were actually like. Set in a richly imagined post-apocalyptic New Mexico, this gritty LitRPG western features superpowered mancers, terrifying animal-skeletal hybrids known as amalgamations, an intricate game system, a slew of rebels, and a big dose of Southwestern mysticism. Inspired by The Dark Tower, Old Man Logan, and Red Dead Redemption, best-selling author Harmon Cooper takes you on a high-octane thrill ride through desolate landscapes and urban decay, on an adventure that doesn't know how to back down from a challenge, one filled with witty dialogue, killer action, and good ol' fashioned Southern defiance. less
