A rogue vigilante seeks redemption in a lawless, near-future America that fully protects the rights of armed citizens to stand their ground against mass shooters and motorcycle gangs.

I enjoyed this book a lot, from the fantastic opening scenes I was hooked and swept along at a fast pace all the way through. The characters are interesting and very well brought to life by for the most part excellent narration. The world that has been built is well articulated and left me wanting to find out more. I found myself wanting the character arcs to go in slightly different directions towards the end, but it also felt like they was more to tell and I wonder if we might hear further stories from the born again patriots' world.

An enjoyable dystopian western
