After Armageddon

The world destroyed - or reborn? It's a perilous new world out there, following the Final Trump. Mutants and mendicants prowl the ruins. Strange new powers arise to challenge the huddled survivors for dominion over the broken land. Underground amidst their hoarded goods, survivalists scheme to bring back the dead past, while above, in the bleeding aftermath, only one thing is certain: There will be more war - as the evil conspire, the brave make their stand, and the strong survive. The newest chapter in Jerry Pournelle's vision of humanity's splendid and terrible future - an unforgettable tour of a world reborn to fight another day.
