This was a good entry in the series. Crazy Cults sure are common in the Deathlands. In this instance, they worship snakes. There were actually some good people in the ville though, for once. One character from the party dies and one is added. He's a "freezie" from the 20th c. woken from cryogenic sleep, which made for an interesting awakening. No rape and torture, for once.
They took my favorite character, Jack, and reduced him to a blithering idiot speaking garbled English and took Lori, the true blithering idiot, and turned her into a cold bitch. I was happy when she was killed off in the fire at the end.
The Deathlands series is my not so guilty pleasure - enjoy every one.
Killed off an annoying character, but got another annoying character. Story is fun.
I am currently working through this series, and I have to say, it's just plain fun. I like the post-apocalyptic setting, the characters are developing through the series with each book revealing a little more back story, and there's action and gunfights and mutated creatures. Good fun!
5-stars for killing off Lori.
An average apocalyptic adventure story. This one takes a century after the last war and now there are mutants running around the earth. Recommended
Post apocalytic western with classic themes of men and women doin' what they gotta' do and murky morality. The Stickies, mutant humans with suckers are genuinely repellant and camaraderie between Ryan Cawdor's band makes them likeable, despite their ruthless behaviour. New awakened cyro patient Rick is literally something of a load on the band and the story but presumably he's arrival is leading to something in a later book. Good action scenes and the Hell's Angels are colourful opponents. It's
This one is pretty good with the strangle little conflicted ville and the freezies. Interesting new information is brought to light, and an increasingly irritating character is eliminated from the series.
This is the one that got me started. Everyone is a thrill ride.
more deathlands wackiness. this time with giant-snake worshipping religious fanatics. A guilty pleasure.
