comment
Damnation Alley is a novel by Roger Zelazny, taking place 30 years after World War III destroyed civilization. Hell Tanner, the last Hell's Angel, is hired/coerced into driving across what used to be the US to deliver a desperately needed vaccine.Inspired a 1977 film of the same name, which doesn't have much in common apart from the name and a post-apocalyptic setting. A more faithful adaptation would be the Judge Dredd story The Cursed Earth Saga.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })

After the End

comment
After the End: Damnation Alley is steeped with post-apocalyptic visions, from the forlorn decaying towns to the very air which churns in constant turmoil, ripping apart anything rising up more than a couple of stories.

And the Adventure Continues: Tanner does not stay in Boston, waiting only long enough to smear some swear words onto a freshly erected monument to himself.

Anti-Hero: Tanner starts out as a Nominal Hero: he only agrees to deliver the vaccine in exchange for full pardon and under threat of death. During the travel, he slowly becomes noticeably nobler—and at the end he's a Unscrupulous Hero, or maybe even a Pragmatic Hero.

All Bikers Are Hells Angels: Interesting enough, Tanner is the last Hell's Angel that exists (the rest were annihilated before the novel).
