This is a pre-order fulfilling on November 3, 2026. A Man of Destiny In a different time, Vic Kinkaid would have helmed Apollo mission control or helped build Detroit on rolling me tal. Instead, Vic is a nondescript middle manager at Samson Trucking, forced to answer to HR Karens and running a failing logistics operation in a crumbling world. He’s a widower who takes solace in reading about the past, particularly his beloved Roman history. Vic figures he’s just about done. But the world isn’t done with Vic. Shortages and riots intensify as a politically insane Washington stamps down on the American heartland. Then comes Covid-X. Vic emerges into a fallen world. Institutions are wiped away. The road belongs to predators. And the confused and delusional wait for a rescue that will never come. Now, as mounted raiders sweep across the ruins, sacking towns, taking slaves, and feeding on the remains, Vic reluctantly realizes that he’s the man that history demands. It’s going to take a man with a plan. It will take a man who is willing to do whatever it takes to bring back civilization. It’s going to take a new American warlord. Show more
