When the world falls apart, beware the men who want to pick up the pieces. He had the morals of a mercenary and the instincts of a rogue tiger. But all Traveler wanted was to make it to the next town alive. Too bad--that put him on a collision course with a gang of survivalists who wanted to use him as their private hit man in a merciless land war..with the hideous bomb-scarred Bloats, who wanted to make Traveler their next meal..with President Andrew Frayling, who had plunged American into a Third World War and who wanted to claw his way back to the top of the ash heap..and with Major Vallone, who had his own highly personal reasons for wanting Traveler dead.
