Book description
Who was your father the mutant asked Dale Kesley. And try as he might,
Kesley could not remember; his past was an utter blank. But he knew one
thing - the answer to his life's riddle lay in Antarctica, the
once-frozen continent, now an earthly paradise surrounded by an
impenetrable barrier. But how to get there? The only means of
transportation were the spindly six-legged mutant horses. And it was
suicide for Kesley to travel on the American continents. Two immortal
dictators had set king-size rewards for his capture - dead or alive! But
somewhere in the two continents there was someone who would help him,
someone he had to find. The future of the world depended on his success.
