The Final Showdown

The third and final book of Laurence James's Earthblood trilogy. Earthblood, popular name for a plant cancer, has left the world devastated. Slowly it looks like the virus may have burned itself out and green is just starting to return. In this devastated world the reigns of power have been seized by to forces. General Zelig and his Aurora base represent the forces of good. The Hunters of the Sun represent a more repressive future. In the middle are Jim Hilton and survivors of the Aquila, a deep space vessel. In this final book the survivors have united and are pushing to find Aurora. Zelig and the Hunters are looking for Hilton. All is leading to a final showdown that will decide the fate of the country. Nice action, plenty of cliffhangers and twists and a few answers tie up the series nicely. The series could have easily continued but it ended with the final confrontation. Some may think the ending is a little vague but I think that was because of the possibility of later books. But the story is not hurt by it. Fans of Deathlands will be sure to like this one.

If you like futuristic adventure - here it is!

This is the 3rd of the trilogy and is a good read, but the buildup to the conclusion fell short I'm afraid. The ultimate goal was really never shown or told well, but the trilogy was entertaining overall and worth the read.

Similar to the Deathlands Series, definitely worth your time

Auroura Quest, the third and final to the EarthBlood series, is one of the best books I have read. I did not read the other two EarthBlood books, but because of superb writing and story-telling genius, I understood the plot of the story. Just like Deathlands, you can pick up anywhere in the story and catch on to the story quickly. Mr. Axler is not a well-known author, but a fantastic one. His mammoth knowledge is incredible. He researches everything and brings something futuristic and makes it seem truly existent. I highly recommend this book and as well as anything by James Axler
