"Alone at the end of the world, Aria is a woman with a mission! As she traipses through an overgrown city with a cat named Jelly Beans, Aria is on a fruitless search for an ancient relic with immeasurable power. But when a creepy savage sets her on a path to complete her quest, she'll face death in the hopes of claiming her prize" -- provided by publisher.

Disappointing. submitted by eknapp on September 6, 2016, 3:04pm A woman with a battlecycle and a katana is stranded alone on Earth 27 (don't ask) with a cat, an out-of-commission battlesuit, and two hostile tribes of Morlocks.

Wow, was this ever silly. MacLean devotes all of two silly pages to world building. The characters look like they're made of Play-Doh. The title is silly. ApocalyptiGirl's quest is silly. Her decisions are silly. Her big moral dilemma is silly. And the resolution is trite (I bet you thought I was going to say silly.)

At 90ish small silly pages, it's quick at least.

Meh submitted by dntanzer on August 28, 2019, 11:56pm Just boring and racist. Like I love the idea but it's not good.

Stay Away; submitted by rweyler on July 14, 2021, 5:49pm I second everything the the above reviewers already noted. In particular, the artwork seems hastily (carelessly?) drawn. Guns vs. katana, guns vs. machine guns, that's the action. Nothing to see here.
