About this listen

The New York Times and USA Today best-selling series

Face the uncertain future without fear....

A year has passed since the Hell Divers defeated the machines at Kilimanjaro. The freed captives have settled into their new home at the Vanguard Islands, joining survivors from around the world. But extreme weather and failed crops have raised the specter of famine. Ships must push deeper into dangerous red zones, only to come back with less loot - and fewer soldiers.

When the Hell Divers discover a scroll on a raid, King Xavier is faced with a long-buried truth that threatens the future of his people and all of humanity. The Vanguard Islands are not the salvation the sky people thought them to be. To survive, they must venture through the Panama Canal and into the wastes beyond.

With the future at stake, the Immortal once again dons his armor. But there is a reason the great Cazador armies never returned from the canal, and this time not even the King of the Wastes is prepared for what awaits them.

I absolutely love this series I’ve just finish all 9 books and am going back thru and reviewing.
RC Bray Brings this book alive with how he voices the characters making a fantastic story even better. From a humble beginning on an airship 250 years after humanity wiped itself out King Xavier Rodrigues continues to save his people I just can’t get into it so so so many parts of these books are amazing I’ve become obsessed! I only read/listen to post apocalyptic books and this series has trumped them all just buy the books and listen you won’t regret it!

So excited for book 10 in 2023!

I am so obsessed with helldivers just when you think there is no where else for the story to go bam you are taken down a new story direction! can't wait for the next book!

one of the best

I don't understand the mispronunciation of place name - it would make sense if the characters didn't frequently refer to the written and aud8ble records that they have, including a song, about the place that cannot pronounce correctly.
Apart from that, the stories are entertaining.

What's with the place names?

Every time I see that another one of these comes out, I keep thinking "it's got to be the last", yet another one always comes out a year later... and that never upsets me! This is easily one of the best book series I've read/listened to and I never get bored of it.

Love it!

Apart from the appallingly bad luck that the sky people and King Xavior seem to endure in every episode, the intestinal fortitude that they display makes the book well worth reading

Another excellent book in the series

keeps killing everyone without giving good endings or killing main characters gets boring as the series continues, similar to the walking dead show..

it's good but drags on

After so many in the series the story writer maintains the essence and core well , little bits of diversity both add and subtract at the same time.
R C Bray is as always .......pretty well perfect.
Toast to X king of the wastes .......
next please

Still a enjoyable ride.
