About to quit the failed experiment of civilisation, fake detective
Taffy Atom is detained by one last case - a boy with a bomb in his
mind. But what's the trigger? Pursued by cops, mobsters,
mercenaries and a mechanical swan, Atom carries the bomb and
trigger through Beerlight City, the single holdout of creative
mischief in a world overtaken by the trend-led Fadlands. By the
relentless principles of gun karma Aylett's final Beerlight book
lands you in the Delayed Reaction Bar and fixes you a glass of
antifreeze with everything in it. Listen to your heart. It will not
stop slowly. "The most original and most consciousness-altering
living writer in the English language, not to mention one of the
funniest. In NOVAHEAD Aylett delivers his most searing work to date
and comes up with noir fiction so black it's fluorescent" - Alan
Moore. Steve Aylett has been described as "utterly original" (SFX),
"an unstoppable master of space and time" (Asimov's), "the most
original voice in the literary scene" (Michael Moorcock) and "the
coolest writer alive today" (Starburst). "Aylett has made a career
out of redefining the boundaries of science fiction - and sanity."
