Sinopsi

Pig Iron is an action packed, dystopian tale set in perilous times where survival is hard to come by and trust and friends even harder to find. When the Regency takes over, led by the elusive Regent, people have only two choices, either join his army or be hunted by them. That is until Colin Chapel decides to give people a third choice: fight back!áHis only true ally resides in a young girl named Shoestring. They form an endearing bond that is one of the highlights of the story. Together they join forces with others willing to fight, bleed and die for the cause of freedom. Albeit taking on the Regent will be a long and violent journey with more dangers than just his hoard of devoted followers. With twists and turns and an ending youâÇÖre not likely to see coming, who will be left standing at the end of the war for this new world?áJ.M. Wiseman, author of The Human Conspiracy and A Dream For AlwaysMy favourite of Jim X DodgeâÇÖs strange, fast-paced, witty, nihilistic books. Pig Iron is a clever mashup of bloody crime fiction with inventive science fiction. Herein the USA, now âÇÖThe Republic of North AmericaâÇÖ, has been invaded not by a foreign nation but by a force within called The Regency, a vast, powerful crime syndicate.áLike all of DodgeâÇÖs page-turners, itâÇÖs hard to put down. This one keeps the reader sweating, laughing and cringing with its wild and woolly twists and turns of action, sex and satire.áNot the least of its fun innovations is teaming its cop hero with a ruthless six year-old girl. He adopts her as his own and this strangely believable duo lead the epic battle against The Regent, the revolutionary crime lord leading The Regency.áItâÇÖs a raging, intelligent, dystopian tale that unfolds like a nonstop action film from its hard-boiled opening to its weird, gut-grinding, nihilistic conclusion.Not for the weak of heart, but a well-written, flip-flopping thrill-ride you wonâÇÖt forget.Martin Olson, author of The Encyclopaedia of Hell
