Description:

SUMMARY: The US of A is in the final throes of the twentieth century. Climactic catastrophe has ravaged the land. The economy, civilization, and even laws of nature are falling apart. Contrast the fortress city-states of the corporate-owned Policed Zones with the decaying wilderness prowled by the tribalistic gangcults of the new millennium. GenTech – one of the most powerful mega-corps on the planet – has lost a computer disk. Not just any disk. This disk belonged to Doc Zarathustra, eccentric genius and head od the corporation's BioDiv. And now everyone wants it – at any price. Kid Zero – one-time member of the Low Numbers – owes fealty to no one. His only companion is Lady venom – a six foot, female rattlesnake. And he has the disk. Pursued half-way round the world and back by the most ruthless killers GenTech and its competitors can send after him, the odds are not on his side. But the Kid is cunning. He may be a lone wolf, but he's not without friends. And the Kid doesn't want money of power; the Kid wants revenge...
