Pluribus by Michael Kurland

A Post-Apocalyptic Post-Plague Sci-Fi Western of Wandering Magicians, Martians, and Vaccines

Seventy-three years after a catastrophic biological plague decimates Earth's population, the remnants of the United States have collapsed into lawless neo-feudal territories. Traveling across the ruins is Mordecai, a nomadic trader and sleight-of-hand magician who relies on showmanship, bartering, and quick reflexes to survive.

Mordecai's journey takes a dangerous turn when Martian colonists launch a spacecraft to Earth carrying an emergency vaccine to prevent a secondary plague mutation. Caught between ruthless warlords seeking the vaccine and the Martian landing team, Mordecai must cross the post-plague wilderness to deliver humanity's last hope.
