Hell Tanner must embark on a mission to deliver anti-serum to the plague-ridden city of Boston, or spend the rest of his life beyond bars. On his way through Damnation Alley (the dangerous middle part of the US), he encounters mutant bats, snakes, radiation, tornadoes that spew dirt and debris, and biker gangs.

This is a fun little post-apocalyptic tale that's impossible to put down!
