Having narrowly escaped with their lives from the redoubt near Cornerstone, the Deathlands survivors known as the Companions arrive via mat-trans at a destination they presume to be North Dakota, if the mysterious codes given them while in Cornerstone are accurate. That assumption is soon put in doubt as they discover a devastated city covered in continual ashfall, a sky perpetually obscured by black clouds illuminated only by sporadic lightning. The former metropolis is not deserted, however, but densely populated with ravening hordes of barely human creatures.

Kane, once a keeper of law and order in the new America, is part of the driving machine to return power to the true inheritors of the Earth. California is the opening salvo in one baron's savage quest for immortality—and a fateful act of defiance against earth's dangerous oppressors. Yet their sanctity is grimly uncertain as an unseen force arrives for a final confrontation with those who seek to rule, or reclaim, planet Earth.

Das können wir doch alle! Oder etwa nicht? "Not quite", wie es die Engländer mit freundlicher Zurückhaltung ausdrücken würden, um uns dann vorsichtig darauf hinzuweisen, dass die Rückseite eines Buchs nicht "backside" genannt wird. Denn das bedeutet "Hintern"! Der englische "Moonshine" ist ja auch kein Mondschein, sondern Unsinn - oder Schnaps. Und der "Oldtimer" kein Auto.

James Parr fiel zu Boden. Ein heftiger Schmerz durchzuckte seinen Körper. Aus dem Augenwinkel sah er den kräftigen, mit Narben übersäten Mann auf sich zukommen, seine riesige Hand zum vernichtenden Schlag erhoben.

Auch das Quietschen der Tür, die langsam geöffnet und wieder geschlossen wurde, nahm sie nicht wahr. Albert Stöger trat hinter sie. Zwischen seinen Händen spannte sich ein dicker Strick. Blitzschnell schlang er ihn ihr um den dürren Hals. Ich muss dich töten. Der Meister hat es befohlen! Mit einer übermenschlichen Kraft zog er die Schlinge zu. Marie Stöger hatte keine Chance. Nach einigen ruckartigen, zuckenden Bewegungen erschlaffte ihr Körper.
