Guns of the Waste Land Departure

Guns of the Waste Land recasts the legends of King Arthur as an American Western, set in the late 19th century in the West Texas town of Bretton. Volume 1 focuses on the "story of four men wandering the American desert: Percy Murratt leaves his home to find Sheriff Ardiss Drake and learn more about the kind of man his father was. Meanwhile, two of Ardiss' deputies, Gary Wayne Orkney and his best friend Boris Bennick, scour the wilderness in pursuit of vengeance and justice while the object of their search, Lancaster O'Loch flees for his life and that of his mistress (and Ardiss' wife), Guernica. Together these three tales begin an adventure of chivalry and honor as exciting as it is timeless"--Page 4 of cover. Volume 2 continues the story: "Percy Murratt awakens to find himself safely in Bretton and under the protection of Sheriff Drake and finally able to learn the truth about his absentee father. Gary Wayne Orkney and Boris Bennick have caught up with the traitor Lancaster O'Loch and can now exact vengeance for his kidnapping of Ardiss' wife and murder of Gary Wayne's brother. Meanwhile, the Reverend Merle Tallison struggles to find God in the midst of a world seemingly devoid of decency and goodwill."--Page 4 of cover
