Hi Launz, I have this set to private until I do the cover reveal tomorrow morning. These comments are from a while ago, when I just had a generic picture up. You’ll be able to view it tomorrow. M
No worries, Mamacita… I know how you feel. I’ve just put together tomorrow’s Last Bastion blogpost as a draft… much care taken to ensure that it’s definitely “draft” mode!
In a near-future where privatised health care has sent the cost of over-the-counter medicine soaring, terrorists execute a well-planned attack on the world’s pharmaceutical companies.
Ella West is an ex-pat Australian living in New York City when the coup begins and is mistakenly imprisoned for suspected terrorist activity.
On her release she finds her partner, Joah, has passed away because of lack of treatment due to the malfunctioning health care system. As the city descends into chaos, she plans to leave, but is is asked a favour by a friend — to transport his teenage daughter to safety in South Carolina. Ella heads south, planning to honour her friend’s wish and then find a way back across the Mexican border and home to Australia. But in the turmoil that unfolds, her life changes forever.
Of course we want to see it. I sure as hell do.
well i would read it from the small paragragh i read sounds good :)
Awesome idea, a jungle within a megacity and a girl wrangler!
Bring on Australian, ecological, postcolonial and gender narratives! woot woot ;o)
Thanks dudes!
You KNOW you got my vote! :-D
I think it sounds great. I’d buy it, then read it, then buy the next two! :)
Sounds like another winning formula! Where can I place my order?
Jungle in an urban megacity, demons and a hint of magic plus gender bending? I’m so utterly there!!
Bring on the CowPunk! Great concept, love the city landscape setting. Will keep an eye out for it.
I can’t wait to read your cowpunk, Marianne. Fantastic!
What is it you’re all seeing that won’t load on over my fucking ‘net connection? DAMMIT!
