Summary

There's little to remember about life before the Big Nuke, but there's plenty to scavenge in the tainted wreckage of the post-apocalyptic frontier. The barbaric code of survival of the fittest, meanest, or dirtiest makes for hard living and easy death. But Ryan Cawdor and his friends have stayed alive by holding on to their humanity-playing fair...and chilling only when they've got no choice.  A civil war raging in the Des Moines River valley forces Ryan and his companions to take sides, or die. Because somewhere in the middle of the generations-old conflict is a lost redoubt. But Snake Eye, the deadliest gunslinger in Deathlands, stands between them and the way out. And the mutie contract chiller won't step aside until he has Ryan's head.  In Deathlands, there's nothing but rock and a hard place.... Performed by Richard Rohan, Terence Aselford, Colleen Delany, Delores King Willams, Tim Pabon, Evan Casey, Steven Carpenter, Eric Messner, Ken Jackson, Jeff Allin, Patrick Bussink, Christopher Graybill, Joel David Santner, Mort Shelby, Thomas Keegan, Michael Glenn, Scott McCormick, Yasmin Tuazon, James Lewis, Richard Pelzman, Nanette Savard, James Konicek, Ren Casey, Danny Gavigan, Drew Kopas, Dylan Lynch, Gary Telles, David Coyne, Damyon Richardson, Johann Dettweiler.

Moon Fate [Dramatized Adaptation]

Summary

Generations have passed since a nuclear blast all but turned America to dust. Out of the ruins emerges a band of warrior-survivalists, led by a one-eyed man called Ryan Cawdor. In their quest to find a better life, they embark on a perilous odyssey across the ravaged wasteland known as Deathlands. An ambush by a roving group of mutant Stickies puts Ryan and Krysty Wroth in the clutches of a tyrant who plans a human sacrifice as a symbol of his power. The execution is set to take place at the new moon — one night away. Ryan devises an escape plan but is betrayed by another prisoner. As they break for freedom, the Stickie leader unleashes a team of hunter-trackers among the maze of narrow canyons of the Southwest. For Ryan and Krysty, there's nowhere left to run.... In the Deathlands, the only thing that gets easier is dying.
