[Surviving the Dead 01] • The Hellbreakers

In the desert wastelands of the American Southwest, one man stands alone.

Alexander Muir, a once-renowned professional fighter, has spent the last six years surviving the only way he knows how: on his own. In a land where the golden rule is to make allies or die, he has stayed alive against all odds.

But now, his self-imposed exile is over.

In other parts of the world, those who survived the Outbreak have banded together to form militant groups with a single mission: to reclaim what is theirs. One intrepid band, the Third Colorado Volunteer Militia, has decided to challenge a place where even the bravest fear to tread—Phoenix, Arizona.

And now, these two worlds—the barren isolation of a lone survivor and the emerging force of a fledgling government—are set to collide. Together, they will take on a challenge bigger than all of them.

But in this fight, the dead are not the only danger…
