Publisher's Synopsis
ABOUT ONWARDS
In the vast ruins of North America, highways sprawl thick with ash, blistered by the sun and scoured by unrelenting storms. Tribes of lawless bandits and dauntless survivors band together to stake their claim in the barren wilds - but there are worse inhabitants lurking in the wastelands.
A lone wanderer seeks vengeance for his beloved wife, murdered by The Skins - a gang of bloodthirsty humanoid cannibals desperate for human flesh and destruction. He is equipped only with a pack of scavenged food and water, a pistol, a knife, desperate grit and unforgiving hands, and the haunting memory of his dead love.
Onwards leads the reader on a profound journey though a bleak and hopeless world where all that remains is a man's devotion. Unflinchingly brutal, starkly violent, and rich with philosophy - a tale of guilt, grief and loss, and willpower unravels.
Will the man prevail or become that which he loathes the most?
_________PRAISE FOR J R LIBOIRON
"A must have for your reading list. Amazing work."
"Your books are so good. I read them and think: this guy gets it. You are macho and vulnerable in equal proportions. Do you know how RARE that is? I feel like there's 12 of us on earth who are equal parts badasses and dumbasses and I admire your writing so much. I cherish your books and that's why I used your BindRune to paint my latest bear kill. I literally used it as stencil. I wanted a daily reminder (that skull now hangs on my wall) of your work and Thus you..Your honesty is rare. And I admire it. Know this. As you walk through your day KNOW this. Savvy?"
"I wanted to reach out to you and tell you thank you. I'm about 75% through with Rust and Nail, and just ordered Iron and Salt. Your work has been increasingly helpful to me, as it serves to put me in the right frame of mind to continue challenging and pushing myself. So thank you for your hard work, and I look forward to finishing Rust and Nail, reading Iron and Salt, and the continued body of work that I hope is to follow."
"Ideas and philosophies to be a better man in todays world. This book has shown me better ways to walk along a path i was already heading down. It has also shown me I'm not alone in my outlook and world view"
"Excellent. Liboiron describes the reality of being a man/warrior in a hard, cold world. He is actually a very talented writer, I hope he branches out into Manosphere fiction."
"Jeff has landed one of the best sequels to philosophy you could ask for.Sequels can sometime be repetitive or miss the essence of the first success. But Jeff has completely updated his Masculine real world advice, technical application and lifestyle inclusions! For me it couldn't come at a better time, as Demons only attack when you not looking, had some really bad flus (2 in a row) and that's when the demons come hunting you out, not when you at your strongest! And Jeff outlines this in detail as well as ways to overcome the challenge."
