Esther and the residents of Prin set out on a bicycle-powered road trip in search of safety in the utopian city of Mundreel. The constant threats of violence, lack of provisions, and toxic rainwater mean that survival is unlikely for many. Readers of Wasteland won't find too many questions answered, though the vivid, brutal dystopian setting may please fans of darker fare.
