Badlands Born

By Wade Peterson
Badlands Born by Wade Peterson digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

She tried to take the easy way out. But life after death is killer…

 

Jasmine Shaw believed being dead would solve all her problems. But instead of reconnecting with her deceased twin brother, she wakes up in a grim desert afterlife where zombies want to munch on her brains. And no sooner does she escape that fate than she's pursued by an indestructible psycho samurai.

 

Harried and terrified, Jasmine teams up with an Eighties glam-rocker wannabe to navigate the unforgiving landscape. But with a horde of flesh-eaters and the katana-wielding nutjob hot on their heels, all roads seem to lead to ruin.

 

Will Jasmine find her sibling at the passage to Heaven, or will she be skewered by a warrior's blade?

 

Badlands Born is the first book in the gritty post-apocalyptic Badlands Born fantasy series. If you're a fan of Mad Max, The Gunslinger, or World War Z, you've found your next read. If you like complex heroines, gruesome ghouls, and Eighties Easter eggs, you'll love Wade Peterson's page-turning tale.

About Wade Peterson

Wade Peterson writes award-winning sci-fi and fantasy stories you think about long after finishing. He's poured a lifetime of tabletop RPGs, 80s and 90s hair metal, electrical engineering misadventures, and dog-eared paperback novels into his story worlds.

When not writing, he's in the back yard trying to master the arcane mysteries of Texas barbecue while also wrangling two over-scheduled teenagers, serving the whims of two passive-aggressive cats, and agreeing with whatever wine his wife picks to go with dinner.
