Roadkill - The Alliance

Anthony Masters unerringly focuses on the preoccupations of modern teenagers and in this second book of the Roadkill trilogy the world is controlled by an armed corporation determined to annihilate resistance. The high-tech cover gives an accurate taster of the contents - futuristic, violent and stereotyped, but pacy enough to simulate the computer games so often beloved of teenage boys in particular. There's humour here too, though it's not always effective. This series will probably sell.
