Liberation (Wasteland Road Knights Book 1)

‘And now you have me,’ he said, a smile pulling at one side of his mouth as he pulled her in and wrapped her in his arms. The wasteland stretched out all around them in every direction, waiting for them, calling for them.
His life would never be the same again, and that no longer scared him, in fact, it thrilled him, and he couldn’t wait to see what tomorrow brought.
Author Note – 13th Sept 2017
Thank you for reading this first book in a brand new series and genre for me.
The Magi Saga was fun and is very much a passion project for me which I hope to return to soon (stay tuned, I have ideas), and the New Prometheus was a fun project that scratched my Cyberpunk itch.
This story is something I’ve had in my head and had written down on my ideas sheets for a few years now. The basic form of it has changed from the initial idea, but those first ideas are still in there.
You can almost certainly spot the pop culture icons that have influenced this story, but if not, well, then you’re clearly not shiny and chrome and awaited in Valhalla. :-)
Yes, Fury Road was a clear influence on this, but there are plenty of others too.
The basics of it being that I always liked the idea of a post-apocalyptic world, filled not only with humanity clinging to survival, but also with some creepy magical influences and some monsters from legend — zombie’s being one part of it. But I wanted to avoid there being powerful mages throwing fireballs about, and try to keep the paranormal more unknowable and creepy.
So, this is book one, and I have at least two more planned in this series. I also have two other series ideas currently brewing away, one of which would see a return to the Magi Saga, but in a totally different way.
I really hope you have enjoyed this adventure through the wasteland. It’s been a wild ride, and I have loved every moment of it.
I’m writing this having just finished the first draft, so now it’s onto the read through and the second draft before getting it edited.
I also have the cover to do, and I can’t wait to shoot that.
See you in the next book!
Andrew.
