The New York Times and USA Today bestselling series

Humanity has finally found a new home, but the price is blood ...

After a long, perilous journey, Hell Divers Xavier Rodriguez and Magnolia Katib discover the Metal Islands, a sunny habitable zone where thousands of people live by fishing and farming. But this "paradise" is really a violent warrior society ruled by the cannibal king el Pulpo. For the first time in X's life, he is forced to lay down his arms and surrender.

Back on the airships, the Hell Divers are recovering from a gruesome discovery at Red Sphere, where they learned the truth about World War III. Now they must fight another war--this time for what remains of their own endangered species. As the battle approaches, alliances will be forged, and others broken.

Forced to fight in the Cazador army, X faces his toughest mission yet. Will he help his people come down from the sky and claim the promised land, or will humanity go extinct?

X, the Immortal, and the Hell Divers take the war to the oil platforms, the Iron Islands.

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 7, 2019

WARNING!! There be Spoilers ahead! If you haven't read the first four books of this series, you will surely find Spoilers to ruin your fun. You haven't read the rest of this amazing story? Why not? What's keeping you? Get busy!

More than 250 years have passed since WWIII had rained radioactive hell on the surface of the Earth, leaving a tortured hell where every plant and animal mutated to kill everything remaining.

For 250 years the Hell Divers had secured the nuclear fuel cells and supplies that kept the great airships afloat, and the airships were home to the last surviving members of the human race. Kept afloat by huge helium-filled bladders and guided by powerful turbofans, the last remaining airship flew above the lightning storms that covered much of the devastated landscape. All that was left by the bombs which destroyed the structures and covered the ground with deadly radiation was incapable of supporting human life. Only deadly deformed creatures survived on the inhospitable surface blasted by the powerful lightning storms also produced by the bombs dropped from the very airships currently used as the homes of humanity.

The "Hive", last of the mighty floating airships that had sheltered humanity for a quarter-millenium, was now joined to the "Deliverance", an airship like the"Hive", slightly smaller, capable of everything the "Hive" was plus it could land on the surface safely. The "Deliverance", when attached to the "Hive", helped keep it afloat.

The Metal Islands, home to the Cazadores, were located near the Virgin Islands. The Metal Islands floated in a huge patch of clear, sunny skies. No radiation or poisonous atmosphere bothered the inhabitants and the Islands grew several fruits and vegetables to supplement their cannibal diet.

In spite of X's wishes, Katrina and the newest rookie divers, dove to the surface to inspect a top secret military installation off the coast of Cuba, code-named Red Sphere. Hoping to find weapons and supplies for an assault on the Cazadores' Metal Islands. The expedition didn't go exactly as planned. When do they ever?

A terrifying dystopian future provides an amazing storyline and characters you can immediately fall in love with, or growl and spit every time their names are printed. We've lived with and fought beside these actors, dove through forked lightning and crashing thunder. They're well known and much loved (some of them). The story keeps your pulse racing and your tired eyes wide with excitement. Now in this fifth volume of Hell Divers, the action picks up as the sky people (X and Katrina's crew and passengers) take the fight to the Cazadors. Terribly outnumbered, outgunned and out of luck, the Hell Divers lead the charge in the war for the Iron Islands. This is a terrific read! Don't take my word for it! Grab a copy and see for yourself!

Looking for paradise and survival in a world destroyed by nuclear war and they find a living hell

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 8, 2019

Verified Purchase

The survivors of the Great War have scoured the earth looking for a place to land on the earth and rebuild civilization. They want mankind to survive and not become extinct! The apocalyptic effects of radiation and war have destroyed the earth and the radiation has created mutant monsters that make the surface unlivable. The more advanced survivors live in two massive, super advanced, airships. They strive to keep technology alive and growing as best that they can.

They use brave Hell Divers to retrieve power sources, medical supplies and technological items.

Finally they find an area on the surface of the earth on which the first living humans are discovered. It is not on land but on the “Metal Islands”. There are perhaps thousands of people living in sunshine and good weather. The “Sky People” want to join them and live on the Metal Islands till they find out more about the people that call themselves the Cazadors.

Their leader is a maniac serial killer and the Cazadors are cannibals. They scour the earth to find other small groups of humans to use as slaves, or food…….

Nicolas Sansbury Smith has become the best writer of horror and of Sci-Fi drama. This book is one of his best. Every story he writes tends to get better and better. I view his talent as the new Stephen King or the new Dean Koontz. His books, in my opinion, are every bit as good as the top writers of this genre and I enjoy his stories a lot. I find them scary and entertaining!

I just finished reading an Advanced Reading Copy of this book and it was awesome, just like the other four books in the series. I will do a more extensive review as the publishing date in May 2019 gets closer.

And, as always, I will be buying this book when it comes out because I want to support this author.

April 29, 2019:
I just finished re-reading HELL DIVERS V and what an adventure it was. This is one of my favorite series by author Smith. 260 years in the future after World War III decimated the world, there's finally a glimmer of hope for the survivors who we've followed in the series who live in a huge airship high in the sky.

There's talk of Metal Islands in an uncontaminated area of the ocean where the sun actually shines. A prior team of Hell Divers went to investigate and are now missing.

Non-stop action, human cruelty, human bravery and the possibility that after 260 years their search might be over - but at what cost?

This is my favorite of this series so far and that's saying a lot. One thing I truly appreciate about author Smith he writes quickly. I've already pre-ordered HELL DIVERS VI due out in November 2019. And of course I've pre-ordered HELL DIVERS V even though I get Advanced Reading Copies of his books but this is definitely an author I want to support.

I received an Advanced Reading Copy of this book from Blackstone Publishing and Edelweiss in the hopes that I would read the book and leave an unbiased review. No problem there.

A Hell Divers classic!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on May 7, 2019

Verified Purchase

I'll be honest: I was nervous to pick up this book. Given how HD4 ended, followed up by the title and cover of this book, I was hesitant to learn what happens next. This made it difficult to get into the book to start off with. Don't get me wrong. My issues had nothing to do with either the quality of the writing or... or perhaps they had everything to do with it. In the Hell Divers series, Nick has created a cast of characters who have become dear friends. I feel I've been with them through their ups and downs, thick and thin, disappointments, losses, wins. And because of this and the direction of the story - for me, at least - it became increasingly difficult to contemplate more bad stuff happening to any of them. About the only thing that gave me the courage to plough on was reports I was hearing from others who had read it.

And was that faith well rewarded! I should perhaps have trusted Smith more... Don't be silly. I do trust him. I'm just not so sure I trust some of those monsters he invents quite as much, though! And as is to be expected, this book is packed full of all types of monsters. But it's also chock full of good people.

Given the self-induced rocky start, once I really got into the story, it settled right down into being a classic addition to the Hell Divers' story - aforementioned monsters and all. I'm not sure if this is one of the shorter stories in the series, but it certainly went down a treat in the end. I'm glad to have read it, and I look forward to reading more about the further adventures of the Hell Divers.

PS: The dog's fine!

Mais uma vez o autor não nos desaponta! Embora seja o quinto livro da série e com um começo confuso e lento, este se mostra ser um verdadeiro épico de guerra e sobrevivência! Acompanhamos os problemas de ser inserido em um povo diferente X, Miles e Magnolia tem que lidar com isso enquanto mantém a esperança viva.
