In this apocalyptic thriller by acclaimed author John Jantunen, escaped convict Gerald Nicholsâs only hope of saving his son from a gone-mad world is the one thing he vowed himself he'd never do: unleash his alter ego, Savage Gerry, all over again. - Ecw Pr
âJohn Jantunen consistently zigs where other narratives would zag, creating a story that is far stranger and disturbing.â â Shelf Awareness
A thrilling apocalyptic tale that rushes from the inside of a prison to a world that feels even more dangerous. The End couldnât have come at a better time for Gerald Nichols.
Dubbed âSavage Gerryâ by the media, Gerald Nichols became a folk hero after he shot the men whoâd killed his wife and then fled into the northern wilds with his thirteen-year-old son, Evers. Five years after his capture, heâs serving three consecutive life sentences when the power mysteriously goes out at the prison. The guards flee, leaving the inmates to die, but Geraldâs given a last-minute reprieve by a jailbreak. Released into a mad world populated by murderous bands of biker gangs preying on scattered settlements of survivors, his only hope of ever reuniting with his son is to do what he swore he never would: become âSavage Gerryâ all over again.
Set in a future all-too-near our own against a backdrop of Northern Ontarioâs natural splendor, Savage Gerry is a refreshingly Canadian spin on the Mad Max films.
