About the book: 2012 / Five drivers. One race. Millions of tentacles. 2025. Ten years ago, the United States of America, armed to the teeth, started World War III, but this time found itself in a losing position, devastated by nuclear, chemical and biological weapons. The rest of the world is now working to restore civilization, while collectively ignoring the United States. Now the people of America are at the mercy of mutants, freaks, marauders, gangs and the most powerful bandit leader in the country - the mysterious Mister Silver. Now five racers must take part in a life-and-death race that will determine the fate of the planet. Samson, a lone wolf who dedicated his life to racing after losing his wife and son. Gabby Peppermint, a heartless bitch with a huge pink sledgehammer and an unrivaled bloodlust. Junko, a former sex slave in disguise in a 1987 Honda Civic. Hell Mom, a God-fearing Christian who wears a shawl made of tattooed human skin. And Drac, a madman with a glass skull who drives a tentacled car with supernatural powers. Something timeless and beautiful has appeared on the East Coast, in the ancient city of R'lyeh, and these five racers have been called together for the most epic race in history. As they fight their way through a post-apocalyptic New Jersey landscape rife with mind-blowing horrors, Drac, Samson, Gabby, Junko and Hell Mom will face things far more dangerous than themselves. A toothy tornado, nuclear mutants, cannibal Christians, a giant ejaculating puppet, a friendly crab merchant and the great city itself: the city of R'lyeh, it's their doom or their salvation....
