Synopsis

"I have nothing but contempt for the lawless."
--Ben Raines

The Last Frontier

Ben Raines--rebel leader and America's greatest survival expert--has a dream: to free the nation from the deadly grip of outlaw gangs and armies of terrorists overrunning its once great cities. The dream is about to become real.

Most of the forces of lust and murder that chose to remain in the lower forty-eight have been wiped out. Those warlords, thugs, and punks who escaped have taken their gangs north to the untamed wilderness of Alaska. In their hunger to finish the job, Raines and his rebel crew ride straight into a sniper's bullet. Knowing this may be their only chance, the outlaw armies prepare to make one final all-out counterattack on the forces of freedom, whose leader now lies near death. . .

About this title

From the Back Cover:

THE LAST FRONTIER

Civilization as we know it was shattered by the nuclear nightmare of the Great War. But out of the smoldering wreckage, Ben Raines has emerged as the courageous leader of a Rebel Army that will fight not only for its own survival, but to help rebuild a country out of the rubble that was once America.

Ben's dream of a nation freed from the deadly grip of outlaw gangs and armies of terrorists is close to becoming a reality. Most of the forces of lust and murder that chose to remain in the lower forty-eight have been wiped out. Those warlords, thugs, and punks who survived the purge have taken their gangs north to the untamed wilderness of Alaska for one last showdown with America's famed soldier and survival expert. Raines and his rebel soldiers follow in close pursuit -- until a sniper's bullet crashes into Ben's chest. Knowing this may be their only chance, the outlaw armies prepare to make one final all-out counter-attack on the forces of freedom, whose leader now lies near death...as the future of a free America suddenly hangs in the balance!
