Hope Rises from the Ruins
In the desolate forests of Minnesota, Block the CleanerBot searches for a rumored safe haven where robots and humans might finally live in peace. New alliances form. Old enemies linger.
In a shattered Chicago, Nova grapples with the mantle of leadership amid rising tensions. A dangerous robot-human militia sweeps the Midwest, dragging war in its wake. To protect the city, Nova must hold the fragile peace together.
Cybel Venatrix embarks on a quest to rescue Oxford, only to find herself ensnared in the twisted grip of a power-hungry robot.
Will Block and his allies stand tall as the architects of a new peace, or will their adversaries throw the world back into turmoil?
Book 6 of the complete Rusted Wasteland series features a robot protagonist, found family, and page-turning sci-fi action.
This hope-punk tale of unlikely friendship and robot redemption delivers a powerful, emotional finale.
