Equal parts Z for Zachariah and Mad Max, Gilpatrick and Lang\'s darkly funny debut follows a girl from outer space and an aging scavenger who must learn to trust each other in order to survive.
With the help of a ragtag team of misfits, Diane and Virgil may just have a chance to stop him--if they don\'t kill each other first..
And Diane\'s untainted blood, a precious resource in this radioactive hellscape, could keep Virgil alive long enough to finish one last mission--but at what cost? The two will have to wait to work out their differences, however, as a new threat appears on the horizon: a masked man called the Messenger, who hopes to subdue the Junkyard with a mysterious new power.
Virgil\'s spare mechanical battle suit, nicknamed the Grave Walker, can help Diane survive the ruined atmosphere--but it could kill her if it runs out of power.
When a mysterious scavenger named Virgil stumbles upon Diane\'s escape pod, the two strike a deal (if it can be called that).
This is where Diane Three-One-Seven finds herself after the arkship Cradle--the only home she\'s ever known--falls out of the sky.
Welcome to the Junkyard, a toxic wasteland where humans, machines, and everything in between fight for survival among the ruins of a long-forgotten war.
