Alternates between quite entertaining and very weird, which I believe was the point. If you like Terry Pratchett style stories give it a go. Five stars, though one appears to have been stolen by bandits.

From the Publisher
Post-apocalyptic New Zealand with a silly twist
Welcome to the Waste. It's big, it's gross, and it's full of life. Unfortunately, that life has lots of eyes and teeth, and it's almost always hungry.
Centuries ago, the Old World popped out for cigarettes and never came home. No one knows how it happened or why, but these days there's an awful lot of craters in the ground, the robotic Overlords are a bit ticked off, everyone's mutated, and why are there so many undead Things running around at night?
Still, society finds a way. Up and down the endless Waste, people thrive - whether they're hunting criminals in the big city, or simply trying to run a business out in the middle of nowhere. Duncan P. Pacey's "Waste Stories" are full of vibrant, colourful characters, hilarious oddity, memorable madness, and heroic tales of personal sacrifice (and florpadorps).
WASTE STORIES FAQ
What is the tone of these novels?
- The comedic tone is a blend of light-hearted silliness and darker post-apocalyptic humour. The underlying plot of each book is a serious emotional journey with a focus on character development, investigating a different aspect of life after the end of all things. "A story with teeth and a sense of humour" is one way happy readers have described it themselves.
Who will enjoy these novels?
- Fans of humourous novels who still want a strong plot. These books were once advertised as "Terry Pratchett meets Fallout, but not as good as either."
Are there content warnings to be aware of?
- Cartoon violence, coarse language, mild inappropriate references, some mild horror moments.
Are there more "Waste Stories" being written?
- This series is one of Duncan's passion projects, so it will have the occasional release over time.
