About the Author:
Melvin Burgess has produced a body of work that is both
challenging and thrilling, including the seminal teen drug and love
novels Smack and Doing It. His books have been adapted
for film, stage, and television.
From AudioFile:
Rival gangs in post-apocalyptic London attempt to reach peace through marriage, but treachery and war prevail. Colin Moody performs this first installment in a series, capturing all the rage and horror of the complicated plot. Each chapter is told in the voice of one of the story's many characters, or in third-person subjective, and Moody shifts effortlessly between them, even to the point of varying his characterizations when one character's words are quoted by another. Moody shines as the half-dog-half-man resistance leader, Dagmar, giving him a man's speech, through a dog's panting and sniffing, making a bizarre character utterly believable. While the book stops in the middle of the story, the performance stands on its own. R.L.L. © AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
