The Law and the Lawless
Summary
The USA Today best-selling Ralph Compton series continues.... When a bunch of ruffians rob a bank in the sleepy town of Alpine, it's only natural for the locals to be alarmed. But this gang and its leader, Cestus Calloway, are not common criminals. In fact, Cestus is known as the Robin Hood of the Rockies, distributing his loot to those less fortunate, raining stolen money down on the townsfolk. As if that weren't too good to be true, this gang holds to one important rule: steal, but don't kill. All Alpine's marshal, Boyd Cooper, wants is a nice retirement, not to get a posse together to track outlaws. However, when an altercation leads to the exchange of gunfire and the spilling of outlaw blood, he doesn't have much of a choice. The outlaws fear their reputation might be at stake, so they declare revenge on the tin stars of Alpine. They're mad enough to break their own no-kill rule, and Boyd Cooper knows things could end as bloody as they started.

Endworld: Miami Run
Summary
One Hundred Years After World War III - America was a nuked-out wasteland, a gutted remnant of a once-glorious country where only the very strong - and the evil - survived. The Warriors - Possessed of incomparable strength and skill, they were a fighting unit determined to keep civilization alive in a dead land. Miami Run - Before the war, Miami was a hotbed of illegal activity, a crowded metropolis teeming with low-life pushers and half-dead junkies. After the war, things were no better - they were worse. What was left of the Sunshine State was ruled by a gang called the Dragons whose sole desire was to put every man, woman and child on Earth into a narcotic daze. The Dragons were fierce, but it would take more than a bunch of savage pushers to stop the Warriors from wiping them off the face of the blasted planet.
