Death Bringer by Patrick Tilley is the gripping fifth instalment in The Amtrak Wars Saga, an epic post-apocalyptic science fiction series set in a world shattered by nuclear war. Centuries after the devastation, Earth is divided between the technologically advanced, subterranean Amtrak Federation and the resilient, magic-wielding Mutes who inhabit the irradiated surface.
Steve Brickman, a Tracker for the Federation and secret ally to the Mutes, continues his dangerous double life. Torn between loyalty to his people and his bond with the Mute clan M’Call, Steve faces his greatest challenge yet. As war brews between the Federation, the mystical Mutes, and the formidable Iron Masters — a samurai-inspired society — Brickman must tread carefully, hiding his true intentions while protecting those he loves.
With his kin-sister Roz, a powerful psychic, as his only confidante, Steve is drawn into a conflict where ancient magic, ruthless technology, and prophecy collide. As the forces of power gather and Clearwater — his beloved Mute summoner — fights for her life, Brickman prepares for the ultimate battle that will decide not only his fate but that of the entire wasteland.
Fast-paced, immersive, and rich with action, Death Bringer propels The Amtrak Wars Saga into a dramatic confrontation between destiny and rebellion.
