CRAZY is a Crime Thriller novella by Adam Stone. The city streets
are flooded with a new narcotic, driving users to the brink of
insanity... and then just a little further. The police are
desperate to maintain control. The judicial system is falling apart
and every aspect of society is being affected as madness runs wild.
In the midst of all the gibbering, twitching, frothing madness is
one very sinister individual. Calling himself simply 'Crazy,' he
claims to be the source of the insanity. This is his story. "...I
am the crazy of a whole generation, I am the voices in thousands of
heads, I am a wave of laughter and the sound of a mirror shattering
around broken, bleeding knuckles. I'm mumbling, I'm gibbering fear,
I'm visions, hallucinations, paranoia and even love. I am
everything that is crazy in this city. I am crazy. I need this city
and maybe when this city falls I too will find my end. I fervently
hope so... Oh yes, we mustn't forget fervent hope... I'm that
too..."
The crew of the Chameleon are out for payback... But retribution is
a dangerous and costly business when your enemy is as powerful as
the Magus King and his campaign is led by the unpredictable and
infamous Cutlass Salad. In 'Navigator', the first book in the
'Chameleon' duology, Captain Nick and his courageous group of
renegades set out to free their world and those they love from
tyranny and cruelty. Now, in 'Retribution', after some success and
some losses they never expected, the situation is grim. They are
preparing for war. This is a story of planning and politicking in
foreign empires, of mysterious forces, of battles and bravery and
amidst it all moments of unexpected joy and love. Everyone, down to
the smallest Nelly, has a part to play.
A teenage boy, an intelligent reptile and a pirate captain with
uncommonly blue eyes walk into a bar... This is no joke but the
beginning of a voyage of rebellion on the high seas, bringing
together a motley collection of larger than life characters to take
on a king whose brutality and thirst for magical power know no
bounds. As James uncovers the secrets of the legendary pirate ship
Chameleon and her crew he stumbles upon truths that have been
hidden from the world for a very long time. The Magus King has
suppressed the technologies of steam and powder but now, Gods
willing, his stranglehold on the world may be challenged. Prepare
to repel boarders!
