**HORROR AND HOPE IN THE 21ST CENTURY** Emerging from a gateway into the snowy barrens of the Colorado Rockies, Ryan Cawdor and his warrior group are forced to strike a deal for survival. This part of white hell is controlled by Baron Nelson, a grief-ridden widower burning for vengeance against the hired killers who murdered his boy. Not far from Nelson’s barony lies Yuma, a nasty hellhole every badman in the Rockies calls home. Ryan, Doc and J.B. Dix begin a perilous journey across desolate mountains to Yuma to capture and deliver the boy’s killers back to the baron. The odds are not good: if the mutant grizzlies and roving marauders don’t get them, the sadistic guntoughs in Yuma will. In the Deathlands, survival is a gamble. Death is the only sure bet.
