She felt their eyes, all those executioners... Enter a world where,
watched by millions, prisoners fight like gladiators for the
ultimate prize: their freedom. 'The new maestro of dystopian lit
has arrived' WIRED 'Beautiful and brutal' INDEPENDENT
'Electrifying' GEORGE SAUNDERS Welcome to Chain-Gang All-Stars, the
popular and highly controversial programme inside America's private
prison system. In packed arenas, live-streamed by millions,
prisoners compete as gladiators for the ultimate prize: their
freedom. Fan favourites Loretta Thurwar and Hamara 'Hurricane
Staxxx' Stacker are teammates and lovers. Thurwar is nearing the
end of her time on the circuit, free in just a few matches, a fact
she carries as heavily as her lethal hammer. As she prepares for
her final encounters, as protestors gather at the gates, and as the
programme's corporate owners stack the odds against her - will the
price be simply too high? COVER TO BE REVEALED --------- READERS
CAN'T STOP TALKING ABOUT THE BOOK OF THE SUMMER 'I've waited my
whole life for a sapphic Hunger Games!' 'An explosive page-turner
that's also a chilling social commentary.' 'This novel is alive and
glorious. Give it all the awards.' 'Had me cheering and weeping,
unable to tear my eyes from the page.' 'A masterpiece that packs a
mighty punch.'
