Synopsis

The New York Times and USA Today bestselling series Face the uncertain future without fear …A year has passed since the Hell Divers defeated the machines at Kilimanjaro. The freed captives have settled into their new home at the Vanguard Islands, joining survivors from around the world. But extreme weather and failed crops have raised the specter of famine. Ships must push deeper into dangerous red zones, only to come back with less loot—and fewer soldiers.When the Hell Divers discover a scroll on a raid, King Xavier is faced with a long-buried truth that threatens the future of his people and all of humanity. The Vanguard Islands are not the salvation the sky people thought them to be. To survive, they must venture through the Panama Canal and into the wastes beyond. With the future at stake, the Immortal once again dons his armor. But there is a reason the great Cazador armies never returned from the canal, and this time not even the King of the Wastes is prepared for what awaits them.

Goodreads review by Brian's on September 19, 2021

Just Excellent I mean, at this point, I'm not surprised that Smith was able to not only write another amazing book but, eight books in, still knock my socks off. I should have gone into this story barefoot knowing he was going to blow them off. Normally by eight books into a series, the surprises are......more

Goodreads review by Aristotle on October 23, 2021

X's men and women are back! Fun with quick pacing It should have focused more on the fight at the Panama Canal and less on keeping the residents of Vanguard Island from revolting Insubordination is the act of willfully disobeying a lawful order of one's superior. Hell Divers excel at that. With so many l......more

Goodreads review by Anita on September 11, 2021

I received this book as an ARC (advanced reader copy) prior to publication so I won't give any spoilers past the author's description.

Goodreads review by Ruth on September 26, 2021

3.5 It was good, as always from NSS. But as much as I like female characters, I found these a little too OP. I don't know if it was on purpose, but they were too much, to the point of immasculating their partners. Also making purely emotional decisions that risked a lot of other lives. I also could......more
