The Dead Lands by Benjamin Percy (April 2015)
Requirements: ePUB Reader | 665 Kb
Overview: In Benjamin Percy's new thriller, a post-apocalyptic reimagining of the Lewis and Clark saga, a super flu and nuclear fallout have made a husk of the world we know. A few humans carry on, living in outposts such as the Sanctuary - the remains of St. Louis - a shielded community that owes its survival to its militant defense and fear-mongering leaders.
Then a rider comes from the wasteland beyond its walls. She reports on the outside world: west of the Cascades, rain falls, crops grow, civilization thrives. But there is danger too: the rising power of an army that pillages and enslaves every community they happen upon.
Against the wishes of the Sanctuary, a small group sets out in secrecy. Led by Lewis Meriwether and Mina Clark, they hope to expand their infant nation, and to reunite the States. But the Sanctuary will not allow them to escape without a fight.
Genre: Fiction, Speculative Fiction, Post-Apocalypse

"A visionary thriller ... With its fluid integration of reflections on American values and freedoms into a near-future scenario whose dramas resonate with the contemporary zeitgeist, this novel is a reminder that the best speculative fiction speaks to the concerns and issues of its time." —Publisher's Weekly, starred review
"Percy offers a tip of the hat to American explorers Lewis and Clark in this harrowing post-apocalyptic thriller. . . . Percy uses his gift for literary horror, as seen in Red Moon, to create a compelling and at times disturbing story that will leave readers wanting more." —Booklist, starred review
"A compelling post-apocalyptic adventure populated by fascinating characters [and] a clever riff on the Lewis and Clark expedition." —Library Journal, starred review
"Benjamin Percy's, The Dead Lands, is a case of wonderful writing and compulsive reading. You will not come across a finer work of sustained imagination this year. Good God, what a tale. Don't miss it." —Stephen King
