Publisher Description
In volume one of his epic post-apocalyptic adventure saga, master storyteller John Phillip Backus brings this not-so-distant vision of the future to life with intriguing characters, gifted narrative, believable settings and mythic heroes and villains. Driven by a riveting storyline brilliantly illustrated by Asheville, N.C. artist, Chad Schoenauer, the author weaves his linguistic magic until the reader is utterly immersed in this brave new world and dare not fail to turn the next page for fear of missing out.On his own in the Wyoming wilderness, fourteen years after the End War and its aftermath nearly wiped out the human race, self-exiled survivor, Hunter Macintosh, is suddenly faced with more than he bargained for––three sisters and a child crossing the uncharted wilds alone.Suspicious at first, Hunter soon discovers they’ve traveled more than three hundred miles to find him, at the request of their father, Adam Planchet––Hunter’s former commander and comrade-in-arms––whose besieged Colorado community is at risk of being overrun by lawless hordes! Honor-bound by a pledge made many years earlier, Hunter agrees to return with Elise Planchet to help turn the tide before all is lost.Set against the majestic backdrop of the North American Rockies, Hunter – After The Fall is an engrossing tale of adventure, betrayal and hope, where the true character of an individual is thoroughly tested and the outcome uncertain at best. Join Hunter and Elise as they battle bands of outlaws, enraged grizzlies, numbing blizzards, armed militias and their own stubborn hearts in an epic tale of good-versus-evil in a potential future all too easy to conceive!

Enjoyable Read
Hunter: After the Fall is an intriguing post-apocalyptic novel filled with heroic protagonists, wicked villains, and a tortuous plot. Vivid descriptions throughout the book, which are often quite poetic, are especially engaging. The reader is successfully brought into the world of Hunter and Elise through this descriptive process, which is at times reminiscent of classic literary fiction. The book also appears to be well researched with highly developed, culturally diverse characters. Overall, Hunter is an excellent read that I would recommend to anyone with a sense of adventure.
The post apocalyptic adventure saga begins!
I thoroughly enjoyed Hunter - After The Fall by John Phillip Backus. The way he eloquently describes the scenery, presents the story line and develops the characters, makes this post apocalyptic action-adventure very believable and entertaining. This novel isn't your typical depressing PA book, but rather an uplifting tale of courage and rebuilding after the End War. Packed with action, adventure and romance, I was eager to continue on as the story took many twists an turns. I would highly recommend this book to any action-adventure, wilderness, PA, fantasy, or sci-fi book lover and look forward to reading The Gathering!
