Good cops have no use for coincidence. When a driver slams his pickup truck—twice—into a tandem bike being ridden by Carlos Guzman and his fiancée, Tasha, in Briones, California, it's more than a simple hit-and-run; the driver clearly intended to harm them.

She is greeted by Police Captain Eddie Mitchell, formerly of Posadas County, who allows Estelle to "consult" on the investigation—but only to a point.

Led by Blade, they were seven hand-picked members of the Freedom Federation. Each was a volunteer because no one had the guts to order them to go anywhere; each alone was worth an army - together, they couldn’t be stopped. The Mission: Sanitize the Outlands of Oregon, which were under the rule of a vile race of mutants called the Reptiloids. Their diabolical leader had a taste for pitting humans against each other in Roman arena combat, and all the lizard-men had a taste for human flesh.

After the nuclear holocaust, New York City became a zombie-ridden chaos where no sane man would willingly go. But Blade and his men had to venture into the fallen metropolis.

The Family - They were a civilized island in an uncivilized land. The Warriors - Experts in death, they were unparalleled in strength, unmatched in skill - and dedicated to the protection of the Family. The Nevada Run - On the trail of kidnappers, the Warriors stumbled upon a city they thought was long dead - tawdry, decadent Las Vegas. The once-proud mecca of sand and sin was now a cesspool of depravity and danger, a killing ground where death was the prime form of amusement. And it didn't take a bookmaker to calculate the Warriors' odds on survival.

In nuked-out America, every fight was a fight to the death. The Technics, the dictatorial technocrats, had moved their base to Wisconsin, where they were turning men and women into mindless automatons who were slaves to the Technics' will. The Warriors were up against a city of zombies, only seconds away from becoming as helpless as the people they were trying to save!

In a world gone mad, the warrior’s anger kept them sane. With the Russians poised on the brink of success in genetic experimentation and Blade suddenly missing, the Warriors launch a rescue mission to post-nuclear holocaust Boston and find themselves in a trap.
