Publisher's Summary

The New York Times and USA Today bestselling series

New monsters. New terrain. New threats. Welcome to Australia.

The battle for Panama is over, and King Xavier Rodriguez secretly deploys the airship Vanguard to Queensland. The hunt for the Coral Castle is on. The rest of the fleet returns to the Vanguard Islands with new ships and supplies, but tensions rise with rumors of a hidden food cache.

When two sky people are murdered, Chief Michael Everhart knows the stage is set for mutiny. And with King Xavier off in search of the Coral Castle, he feels the target on his back. At Panama, a new leader emerges as an ancient evil threatens Outpost Gateway. The only hope of defeating it is a youth who has learned to survive in the deadly ruins.

On Australia’s Sunshine Coast, King Xavier leads the search for the Coral Castle while Captain Rolo deploys the Hell Divers to hunt for a new source of seeds. As losses from both missions mount, the king wonders if finding this place is worth the cost. But turning back to the Vanguard Islands without a new food source could doom all humanity to starvation. Or to all-out war.

Best one yet!

This was the best yet… well, as far as I can remember anyway. The first seems so long ago. As always, Bray delivers a stellar performance and Smith ended the book with a “wth” moment that’s left me waiting very very impatiently for HD10.

Another brilliant instalment of the Hell Divers series! The hits keep coming as NSS expertly take you on an emotional roller coaster of despair, loss and hope as humanity struggles to survive against not only the monsters and deadly environment, it also themselves.

Great story but also so frustrating

Love this series as an entertaining listen. I try not to give it too much deep gleaning. This one was very exciting, intense and sad. It was also sooooo frustrating that the main characters who survived everything and should be so smart are still so naive and fall for the same plots, traps, and situations over and over again. Never being suspicious if their known enemy suggests something, ever.

But. Oh well still love it and I’m excited for the next hahaha.

Pulleez...bring on Book 10!

Radioactive is everything I hoped for... and more. Nicholas Sansbury Smith is a helluva good storyteller and R.C. Bray is the only person to tell that story with the gusto it deserves.

Now that’s more like it

I listen to all the books in the series up to date and I have enjoyed this series immensely however Brook 9 has reaffirmed my enjoyment of the series. I'm now looking forward to book ten
book 8 was a let down for me but nice to see book nine impress.
