For fans of Fallout, Mad Max, and the Dark Tower comes an epic tale of wasteland adventure for a new generation. In the bleak and dangerous wastelands of a dying world, a lone drifter sets off on a journey of vengeance, fleeing the men who want him dead. Daxin Glaive is carrying a secret which, in the right hands, will ensure the downfall of his forefathers' most bitter rival and win his family its long-awaited retribution. Across the sands, a young soldier stews in his lookout post above the derelict city of Belmond. Merrick Bouchard is one of thousands serving a dogmatic regime which seeks to control the city and its resources while starving masses of mutants and vagrants vie for the scraps. Carrying wounds from a brutal childhood and disenchanted with his life, Merrick will soon discover he is nothing like those with whom he serves. There is something in his blood; something which could break him if left untamed, but which might be the key to the survival of his world, if only he can learn how to wield it. And in the fathomless depths of the world below them, a great evil lies dormant, waiting for the right time to rise again. Perhaps that time only requires the right person... Praise for J.C. Staudt and The Infernal Lands "[An] epic journey on the scale of Tolkien ... a Martin-esque world, in regards to the characters and depth. I was hooked from the first paragraph."--N.M. Sotzek, author of Revealing the Revolution "Detailed, interactive plot-lines weave a compelling story from beginning to end."--The Kindle Book Review "Staudt's built a riveting post-apocalyptic world."--Amazon Reviewer, on The Shepherd For fans of Mad Max, Fallout, The Dark Tower (Gunslinger), and S.M. Stirling (Dies the Fire, The Change, Emberverse).

A 17th-century gentleman, mourning the death of his beloved, Lady Mirdath, is given a vision of a far-distant future where their souls will be re-united, and sees the world of that time through the eyes of a future incarnation. The Sun has gone out and the Earth is lit only by the glow of residual vulcanism. The last few millions of the human race are gathered together in a gigantic metal pyramid, nearly eight miles high – the Last Redoubt, under siege from unknown forces and Powers outside in the dark. These are held back by a shield known as the "air clog", powered from a subterranean energy source called the "Earth Current". For millennia, vast living shapes—the Watchers—have waited in the darkness near the pyramid. It is thought they are waiting for the inevitable time when the Circle's power finally weakens and dies. Other living things have been seen in the darkness beyond, some of unknown origins, and others that may once have been human. The narrator sets off alone into the darkness to find the girl he has made contact with, hoping that she is the reincarnation of his past love.
