Another Favorite Series
Sunday, October 30, 2005 at 2:09PM
At the opposite end of the spectrum from the Pelbar Cycle is the Ashes series by William W Johnstone, another one of my favorites. It's more men's adventure than sci-fi, and takes place in the years right after a limited nuclear and biological war, and the ensuing "aftershocks" of plagues and invading armies. Lots of gun talk and "look, a criminal" bang, dead.
I started reading this one back in the mid-80's as a teenager, and I have to confess that I only got through the first 14 or so books. From what I understand, it's up to about 33 books now days.
