Orbital Bombardment Victory Road

road trip AFTER the end of the world!

Looking for America

You’re twenty-something and looking for the meaning of life. If you were an 18th century aristocrat, you’d take the Grand Tour. In the 1960s, you’d hop a Greyhound, or get on your motorcycle. In 22nd century America, you take a road trip across the continent on the Orbital Bombardment Victory Road. Thanks to the spacers, there is one smooth, but dangerous, road, running through communities rebuilt and rebuilding, of Mennonites and Amish, of the fierce, proud Madmacs and the joyful Burning Men, and others diverse enough to boggle any attempt at categorization.

Join with three strangers in a replica station wagon making their way from Baltnomore to San Fiasco on America’s most dangerous highway. One is a professor at a prestigious university; one is an entrepreneur whose work straddles two worlds; one is a freelance reporter seeking fame, glory, and a way off the Allotment.

Dodging impact craters and road warriors, lake monsters and Burning Men, these unlikely friends find themselves on a madcap journey of self-discovery. But how far can you really get in a world where evil AIs call the shots and the use of electric light is punishable by vaporization?

From the Stormlands to the halls of Gem City, and from sea to shining sea, the apocalypse has never been so sweet.
