Publisher's summary

The world can't be saved; it has already ended.

The "Skirmishes" have left the land in absolute ruin. The last few remains of civilization are Citadels; corrupt, oppressive, and dangerous for most who inhabit them. Outside, the "Big Waste" is a stretch of an endless damaged landscape that has been scorched, poisoned, and left to decay by the horrors of constant war. The threat of Citadel bounty hunters, mutated animals, ghoulish formerly-human mercenaries, and all-powerful gangs looms over everyone.

Happiness is unlikely, conflict is frequent, and death is certain.

When an accomplished destruction derby driver decides to take a seemingly simple delivery job outside the Citadel for a little adventure, he learns very quickly why the first day in the Big Waste can often become your last.

Disclaimer: This book contains brutal violence, unconventional morals in a post-apocalyptic world, detailed mature activity, nonhuman females with poly and harem elements, and a little bit of dark humor thrown in for good measure.

Learning to survive in the Wasteland

The MC comes off as a talented but naive fool and is annoyingly off-putting at times, but it is understandable considering that he's a newly minted exile to the wastes, a real fish out of water story. The fact that he actually has to learn the hard way while on the move gives the story a real zing, as he slowly adapts to his brutal new world. "April Hoffman"s" performance is just the icing on the cake, as her performance gives the characters fun and at times sensual personalities. Looking forward to Book 2.

Is a good dark tale and erotic adventure

I love the fact that the MC has common sense and is not a coward, I love the adventure that I was taken on. From the action scenes to the erotic scenes I thoroughly enjoy myself I cannot wait for book 2. If you like dark fantasy and some erotica this is the book for you.

Don’t care for mc

Iggy for the most part is a disappointment. He’s week and whines and there is nothing special about him. He’s always scared when it comes to combat and he is a pushover. Just lame. He is also a complete cuck. not my thing. AND its not a harem at all.
