Synopsis

"Scott Christian Carr and Andrew Conry-Murray have fashioned a wasteland tale reminiscent of some of my favorite apocalyptic movies. A BOY AND HIS DOG and Cormac McCarthy's, THE ROAD come to mind. Fans familiar with the genre will not be disappointed!"
--david j. moore, Author of WORLD GONE WILD: A SURVIVOR'S GUIDE TO POST-APOCALYPTIC MOVIES

"Of Mice and Men Meets The Odyssey in a Post-Apocalyptic Future"
--Cary Caffrey

"The only thing I didn't enjoy about "Wasteland Blues" is that it ended..."
--Daniel Haeusser

WASTELAND BLUES
With a Foreword by Tim Deal, Shroud Publishing
Having only ever known the uncivilized wake of nuclear and biological apocalypse, three friends-and their wheelchair-bound hostage-set out on a perilous fool's mission: to cross from one side of the devastated United States to the other, in the desperate, half-believed hope of finding a rumored haven. Spurred by a dark vision and the murder of their parents, rageaholic Derek Cane and his oversized, simple-minded brother Teddy flee the only home they've ever known, a struggling shantytown on the edge of the vast wasteland. Heading ever eastward, they are accompanied by their friend John, an orphan brought up by a fanatical religious order, and Leggy, a crippled old drunk who brags that, in his youth, he once traversed the wasteland as a scavenger.

Wasteland Blues is the first book of a post-apocalypse Trilogy.
