Out of the ashes of global destruction, Ryan Cawdor and his roving band of warrior survivalists continue their grim odyssey across a nuke-ravaged America, searching for a sanctuary and the promise of a better life.

Emerging from a Gateway into Florida's sultry heat, they enter the domain of a wealthy baron—a technical genius whose seat of power is a rebuilt theme park where the rides are fast and thrill seekers are guaranteed the time of their lives...if they can get out alive.

Influencing the baron is a ruthless and hypnotic cult leader and his demonic 'family,' whose murderous games trap Ryan into a midnight killing spree...with only one way out.

In the Deathlands, the future is a dream. Reality is a nightmare.
