Last updated

Endworld is a series of post-apocalyptic novels written by David L. Robbins. The first book was published in 1986. As of 2021, there have been 31 novels written in the main series, along with three prequels and a crossover novel with his "Wilderness" series. [1] David Robbins also wrote a 13 novel spin-off to this series called Blade. [2]

The series begins 100 years after World War III, a nuclear war between the United States and the Soviet Union. The series revolves around the predecessors of The Family, a survivalist group living in an isolated compound, called The Home, located in north-western Minnesota and their attempts to venture outside their secure home for the first time since the war. The United States itself was ravaged by nuclear, biological and chemical weapons and has become a dangerous place. Very little is known outside the country. In the novels, the Family's protectors, known as the Warriors, travel to cities and territories, usually dealing with some sort of threat to The Home such as dictators, mutants, etc. The leader of the Warriors, Blade, is the most prominent character.
