A must for fans of smart postapocalyptic storytelling.” Sam Sisavath, bestselling author of the Purge of Babylon series It’s a terrific blend of high-concept and wild action, all tied together with tough-as-nails characters that you care for as they face impossible odds. “X marks the spot in Nicholas Sansbury Smith’s Hell Divers, a cross between Waterworld and Snowpiercer…but with monsters and airships.

Hell Divers is one hell of a page-turner!” Bob Mayer, New York Times bestselling author of the Area 51 series “Relentless action and danger in a gritty postapocalyptic world where survival depends on a few brave men and women. Bray’s narration…is the kind of low-key performance that suits intense action perfectly…Bray hits exactly the right tone for a gripping adventure story.” Orson Scott Card, New York Times bestselling author It’s always clear what’s going on, even though the weapons, the enemies, and the settings are all unfamiliar… Smith manages to keep it fresh and alive…R.

Smith outdid himself and wrote a book that jumps off of the pages.“The action writing is very good. Bray – Hell Divers VII: Warriors was easily one of the best books in the series.

Can you tell I liked it? Overall, combined with the great narration from R.C. I liked that it took its time with certain parts and then went balls to the wall with action in other. I liked it for it’s realism in characters and character development. I liked it for its realism (for a Post-Apocalyptic futuristic wasteland). She has a really interesting character arc, especially within this book that is extremely rewarding and realistic. Ada’s journey is a really interesting one and I’m really glad that Smith spent as much time with her that he did. X fell off the wagon (or got back on it again… I guess either works) and has a few moments when he takes in everything that’s happened to him and he partakes in some ‘shine. The thing that I really enjoyed about Warriors was that Smith was able to give each character real moments. The skin walkers are still a threat and their leader, Horn, is even threatening to come take the crown from X’s head (okay, we know X doesn’t actually wear the crown). Most of the crew that you remember is still here and they end up being split into multiple different groups to save the Hell Divers and those they are protecting from certain death. A few times while reading this my thoughts were “Oh, when I talk to him I’m going to give him a piece of my mind” followed within a few minutes with “oh thank god” or “man… he got me again!”. Seven books into the Hell Divers series Smith is still able to pull at my heartstrings and give me both moments I’ve been scared of and moments that I didn’t expect. Hell Divers VII: Warriors was one of those books that jumps off of the pages and into your heart.
