War Machine — Eric Meyer

The desperate fight to survive a stricken America continues.
The hope of salvation lies in the west. Oregon, where there are rumors the power has been restored. Oz Porter leads the survivors on a journey of several thousand miles across a stricken America. In front of them, an unknown enemy. Behind them, a familiar enemy, determined to stop them.

How can they travel across a broken land when their enemies are all around them?
They follow a single-track railroad along the route of the old Oregon Trail. With a handcar to carry the sick and the wounded, their chances are good. Until the enemy, Omega, constructs a new weapon. A steam driven war machine.

How hard must they fight to survive?
Hunted and pursued across a broken land, the new weapon is unstoppable. Yet if they do nothing, their chances of survival are zero. They must stop the unstoppable or die in the attempt.

War Machine is the eighth short novel in the Forever Free series. A chronicle of the vicious aftermath of the breakdown of American society.
