Hidden deep within the U.S. government, one special operations group is America's best chance to combat strategic terror.Covert, uncensored and answering only to the President, the cybernetic and commando teams of Stony Man understand that the impossible can be done, with the right people, the right plan, a little luck–and the courage to attempt what no one else dares.A machine that defies logistics has become a grim reality. A working SS–single-stage-to-orbit rocket, or X-ship–can launch and land anywhere, virtually unseen and unstoppable due to stealth technology and sheer velocity. Now a faceless enemy with a hidden agenda is using X-ships to spread global fire and death like a tidal wave from hell. Facing a crisis of unimagined proportions, Stony Man is once again tasked with the impossible: unmask the masterminds behind the attacks and take them out–fast.

A planet ravaged by the apocalyptic blast of 2001 gave birth to a new world of savagery–and a new breed of hero.In a land where violence rules with absolute authority, Ryan Cawdor and his wayfarer survivalists roam the strange, nascent twenty-second century, living by their own creed of honour as they continue their search for a sanctuary they can call home.In what was once the nuclear testing ground of the preDark world, the Marshall Islands are now the kingdom of the grotesque Lord Baron Kinnison. Here in this world of slavery and brutality the companions have fought a fierce war for survival, on land and sea–yet the crafty baron still conspires to destroy these interlopers. Activating a twentieth-century hot air balloon left untouched by the blast, they escape to the neighbouring pirate-ruled Forbidden Island, with the baron's sec men in hot pursuit–and become trapped in a war for total supremacy of this water world. Not even Deathlands can deny the human will to survive.
