Solomon Wu

A novel of the future after nuclear World War III. The War started between Russia and China, and when it was over, the industrial world no longer existed. The war was brief. Warheads hit all the major cities. Mistaken diplomacy made both sides think the USA would join the other side, so both launched pre-emptive strikes. The United States didn't return fire because the nuclear arsenal was decomissioned. Ninety percent of the global population died from violence, starvation and disease. A new world was hammered out of what was left. A world made of scraps and salvage. What was the USA became different states. In the east, what's left of the USA is called the DRUSA. It has what remains of industry for refurbishing salvage and supplying guns and ammunition for the on-going wars. They also sell the services of their troops to other states. It is not a world where anyone would want to live, but here are the stories of some of the people, and the adventures of Solomon Wu, a soldier in the DRUSA Army.
