It is a land where law has no meaning and mutated animals scavenge for flesh. It is the post-apocalyptic world Beyond the Last War.While the rich flourish in neo-cities high above the nuclear soot, the poor are forced to eke out an existence in a landscape rocked by centuries of conflict and environmental degradation. With the impoverished banished to these decrepit soot cities, street gangs thrive, and rivalries often end in deadly violence.Amidst the chaos of a gang war gone wrong, Drake Kicklighter-leader of the infamous Cheaters-has lost his daughter to the most dreaded mutant of all: the Demon Queen. Desperate to hold onto one of the few things left in his life with any meaning, he seeks the help of a wayward mercenary named Johnnie Bernstein.Together they set out to find the monster's lair and slay anyone who stands in their path. But things are not always as straightforward as they seem, and they soon find themselves drawn into a grander conflict than they could have ever imagined.
