This was a great pulp story about a bad driver who has to drive from LA to Boston carrying an anitedote for a virus in Boston. Trouble is after a massive nuclear war, the road is filled with peril from nuclear fallout.
It is a great adventure story, perhaps not very deep. There has been one film made about the book, and a number of fills copied the idea. The first name of the main character is Hell, so you have to love him, though he is a bad man.
At the end of the book I had the feeling I had read it before..
