Publisher Description
When a monster hunter's last mission is to capture a wasteland girl, his only chance of survival is to turn the hunt around.
Hunt the monsters of the wasteland.
Bring them back alive.
Retire.
Ninety years after the devastating global "Fracture," the biosphere has collapsed. The few remaining cities, once bastions of human survival, have become fortresses of power ruled by ruthless corporations. Axel Mercer, a former soldier, explores the hostile plains to recover organisms for scientific research. But the corporations who run civilization want more.
As his last mission, Mercer is sent to recover a specimen that could bring eternal life to the corporate elites. He learns this organism is not a monster, but a teen girl—a wasteland fighter hardened by a life of survival. Her spirit and fierce determination challenge everything Mercer has believed about his job, his future, and his questionable past.
In a world where power is worth more than life itself, Mercer must decide which side of the fight he belongs on—and what kind of future is worth fighting for.
An action-packed dystopian novel with a simple premise, crazy twists, cruel desires, a pinch of humor, and all the blood and violence of an edge-of-your-seat action movie.

Absolute power and corruption
It took me about 10 chapters to really get into this story. I had a hard time figuring out the significance of key players and what their role was as well as the whole setting. I still don’t understand what the event was that triggered worldwide devastation. Within a dystopian landscape, I eventually came to enjoy the plot of underdog survivors trying to take back their autonomy and ability to “live”. Descriptions of the very bleak environment, creatures, many diverse characters and techy action scenes was really rich. It’s very interesting that in an autocratic world of survival, notions of humanity are lost in the eyes name of greed and power. I came to really enjoy the spirit, camaraderie, and share humanity the main characters. While the end was not totally unexpected, it did allow opportunities for hope and healing to emerge.
