Apocalyptic Fiction

The post-apocalyptic world isn't that bad. Sure, there are mutants. But, for the people of New Hope, daily life isn't so much a struggle of finding food or medicine as it is trying to find a new shortstop for their kickball team. This makes it difficult for a post-apocalyptic warrior to find work. Thankfully, an army full of killers is making its way to the peaceful town and plans to raze it to the ground. Only a fully trained post-apocalyptic nomadic warrior can stop them.

Nur einer von ihnen scheint noch den Willen zu haben, weiterzumachen – doch Mut allein wird nicht reichen, um zu entkommen. Die Korridore und Treppen erstrecken sich endlos durch die absolute Finsternis, und dutzende Blinde lauern im Schatten.
