Publisher's summary

The New York Times and USA Today best-selling series

Face the uncertain future without fear....

A year has passed since the Hell Divers defeated the machines at Kilimanjaro. The freed captives have settled into their new home at the Vanguard Islands, joining survivors from around the world. But extreme weather and failed crops have raised the specter of famine. Ships must push deeper into dangerous red zones, only to come back with less loot - and fewer soldiers.

When the Hell Divers discover a scroll on a raid, King Xavier is faced with a long-buried truth that threatens the future of his people and all of humanity. The Vanguard Islands are not the salvation the sky people thought them to be. To survive, they must venture through the Panama Canal and into the wastes beyond.

With the future at stake, the Immortal once again dons his armor. But there is a reason the great Cazador armies never returned from the canal, and this time not even the King of the Wastes is prepared for what awaits them.

Gets better and better.

This story, along with the author, continues to grow and get stronger. Hell divers was my first taste of Nicholas and even though I do love his other works, this universe is my favorite by far, and hope it keeps growing.
Mr Bray keeps rocking it of course. Only heard one teensy-weensy goof, another than that, you nailed it.
Keep it up Nick and R.C., you're doing great. -Skwhirl

The absolute BEST Series!

This series is amazing from page 1 all the way through the 8th book! The narrator is so talented! You will love it! They need to make the series into movies!

Awesome addition to the series!

Xavier once again has to pull out a miracle to save his home! The introduction of new characters was welcome and adds even more depth to the story. The Panama Canal is no joke, but the King of the Wastes has plans! To new readers you won’t be disappointed and welcome. To veteran readers get ready to dive so humanity survives!

It just keeps getting better

You'd think after 7 books you'd start to see repetitiveness, filler or the irritating "haven't they done this before" issues? That's not happening here! The story just keeps expanding with character development, new enemies, new allies, creatures and plot line. Some characters were mentioned less in this book so others could get more attention which I think is a good thing. It's not just a story about X; everyone's story is getting attention and evolving. The story kept my attention so well that I was surprised when I head "Epilogue" because I was like "It's already been 14 hours?". Can't wait for book 9 and the rest afterwards. Narration was great obviously.

Fantastic

Keeps getting better and better with every book and you can never go wrong with RC Bray. Highly recommended

Woah

Exciting, fast paced and action packed! Great addition to the series! Once I started it was hard to put down

No other words but amazing

Once again necklace Sansberry Smith takes you on a roller coaster of a ride! His superb writing doesn’t just draw you into the story but grabs you on and hold you tight! RC bray once again adds the perfect touch as the narrator of the book. These two are the real dynamic duo.

can't wait to preorder the next one.

Another great book, fantastic performance by R.C.Bray, as usual. This story is so gripping and I'm so excited for the next part.

I Loved this book.

It speaks to the quality of an author when you identify so closely with the characters. I am so attached to these characters that I was yelling at my phone when the book ended.

The Cowboy Rides again

I've been waiting for this book to drop since I first found out it was coming. It did not disappoint. I highly recommend it! You won't regret it!
