Book description
In 2015, nuclear war burns the cities of humanity to rubble, turns the
air to poison, and grass to the color of blood: most of the world
population dies. By the year is 2989, when THE AMTRAK WARS takes place,
humanity is split into two groups - the Trackers, members of the Amtrak
Federation who live in a complex of advanced underground cities, and the
Mutes, who have survived on the surface, adapting to the radiation to
become stronger through mutations. The Amtrak Federation is dedicated to
reclaiming the surface world for humanity, and for centuries, the Amtrak
Federation expands, and kills or enslaves Mutes in their path. But
eventually the Mutes, with their magical powers, prove to be a match for
even the Tracker s advanced technology. Steve Brickman, a newly-trained
Tracker wingman, joins an elite unit making an major strike against the
Mutes. But when Steve is shot down and captured by Mutes, he falls in
love with one of the enemey and learns that there is more to these
people than the Federation decrees. Cloud Warrior is the first in
Patrick Tilley s international bestselling futuristic epic, The Amtrak
Wars. The film rights for the series have been optioned and are
currently in development. In 2015, nuclear war burns the cities of
