Publisher's summary

"The Night of the Long Knives" is an uncompromisingly bleak and rugged sci-fi novella by Fritz Leiber, published in 1960. America has been transformed into a nuclear hellhole called the "Deathlands", where the survivors must do just that - survive - by pillaging and killing...

"I was one hundred miles from Nowhere - and I mean that literally - when I spotted this girl out of the corner of my eye. I'd been keeping an extra lookout because I still expected the other undead bugger left over from the murder party at Nowhere to be stalking me...." Will attraction and sex outweigh the "need" to kill?

Interesting, but dated.

What happens after the world ends? The story of three people and their journey in the radioactive wasteland. Not his strongest work.

Not what I wanted

I was expecting an historical review of the Nazi cleansing in Germany that killed the SA supporters and other dissidents.
