After the fires of oblivion, one man's bold dream for an America reborn!
A Nation's Last Hope
The devastating nuclear nightmare of the Great War of '88 brings civilization to the brink od destruction. Only Ben Raines, famed soldier and survival expert, and his ragged band of followers share the dream of rebuilding a new country out of the smoldering ashes—a country once known as America.
In this hellish new world, Ben Raines must confront two of the world's deadliest threats to freedom's cause. Swarming westward across America's southern tier march the avenging soldiers of Libyan blood terrorist Khamasin, intent on reducing all that remains of "The Great Satan" to an improverished slave state.
