The year is 2083. The global population has been decimated by the final flu. The United States – not united for a long time – is no more. New lines have been drawn. Five divided nations stand. The story begins in one nation, the New West, which is much like the Old West. The heart of the Comanche empire, turned thriving Texas Hill Country, turned desolate and violent and ruthless once more. A harsh landscape and a society without technology, laws or base human agreements to guide us. Here in the New West, three lives intertwine in a quest for meaning, pleasure and power. new-west-series.com

Customer Reviews
Great start!
Cool mix of western and post apocalypse, a “the world has moved on” feel to the world, harsh and unforgiving (which I always enjoy).
Excellent audio quality, narrator matches the material and does a great job (as well as the other voices) and has good sound effects mixed in but not too intrusive.
Looking forward to more 🤙
If Mad Max Was a Western
A thrilling Western unlike any I’ve read before. Set in the future, but timeless in very human themes, the story drew me in, yearning to learn more about the characters and these desolate Texas lands, brought to life in the most vivid detail. I genuinely rooted for Caroline, the heroine, along her journey through this brutal, post-apocalyptic world. I hope there’s more.
Modern Western
Not for the faint of heart, this modern western leaves nothing to be desired. Well researched flora and fauna provide the background for the character driven narrative. Definitely worth a listen!
