Book excerpt: Civilization came crashing down. Billions died. A new Dark Age has begun. The descendants of the apocalypse's survivors scavenge the remnants of the Before Times, struggling to build a new life amidst the ruins of the old. In a savage world where the strong ravage and exploit the weak, the survivors' settlements are oases, connected only by convoys of armed and armoured vehicles that run the gauntlet of raiders... and worse. Though the threats of chemical and biological agents and radiation have all but faded, their taint lingers on in every mutant born to man and beast. This is the world of Atomic Highway. Atomic Highway is a complete roleplaying game. All you need to play it is this book, a few friends, paper and pencils, and a few ordinary dice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Muties. Freaks. Abominations. Radscum. Monsters. The twisted victims of radiation, biochemical warfare, and mutagenic agents, mutants are outsiders, loathed, feared, shunned, and victimized by the ranks of normal humanity. Whether unique in their taint or members of stable groups of new radborn species, mutants may possess abilities strange or horrific, may be threat or ally, individuals every bit as complex and individual as any normal man. Humans and beasts alike may bear mutations, and there are whispers that such perversions of nature have occurred as to allow plants to think and move like men... Irradiated Freaks is the mutant supplement for the Atomic Highway Roleplaying Game.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the road to Survival City, Tom Vanderbilt maps the visible and invisible legacies of the cold war, exhuming the blueprints for the apocalypse we once envisioned and chronicling a time when we all lived at ground zero. In this road trip among ruined missile silos, atomic storage bunkers, and secret test sites, a lost battleground emerges amid the architecture of the 1950s, accompanied by Walter Cotten’s stunning photographs. Survival City looks deep into the national soul, unearthing the dreams and fears that drove us during the latter half of the twentieth century. “A crucial and dazzling book, masterful, and for me at least, intoxicating.”—Dave Eggers “A genuinely engaging book, perhaps because [Vanderbilt] is skillful at conveying his own sense of engagement to the reader.”—Los Angeles Times “A retracing of Dr. Strangelove as ordinary life.”—Greil Marcus, Bookforum

Book excerpt: “You’ve never read a road trip novel like Ailsa McFarlane’s Highway Blue.”—Entertainment Weekly A hypnotic debut of broken love on the run, from a blazingly original young writer “In front of me the long length of the road wound out, wound out and wound on under hot sky. And I drove . . .” In the lonely town of San Padua, Anne Marie can never get the sound of the ocean out of her head. And it’s here—dog-walking by day, working bars by night—where she tries to forget about her ex-husband, Cal: both their brief marriage and their long estrangement. When Cal shows up on Anne Marie’s doorstep one day, clearly in trouble, she reluctantly agrees to a drink. But later that night a gun goes off in a violent accident and the young couple are forced to hit the open road together in escape. Crammed in a beat-up car with their broken past, so begins a journey across a vast, mythical American landscape, through the dark seams of the country, toward a city that may or may not represent salvation. Highway Blue is a story of being lost and found—and of love, in all its forms. Written in spare, shimmering prose, it introduces the arrival of an electrifyingly singular new voice.
