Author(s): William S Burroughs
While young men wage war against an evil empire of zealous mutants, the population of this modern inferno is afflicted with the epidemic of a radioactive virus. An opium-infused apocalyptic vision from the legendary author of "Naked Lunch" is the first of the trilogy with "The Places of the Dead Roads" and his final novel, "The Western Plains."
