What do you buy and sell when the global markets reach saturation point? The markets themselves.Thirty years from now the big players in global capitalism have moved on from commodities. The big money is in conflict investment. The corporations keep a careful watch on the wars of liberation and revolution that burn constantly around the world. They guage who the winners will be and sell them arms, intelligence and power. In return for a slice of the action when the war is won. The reward? A stake in the new nation.It's cynical, brutal and it has nothing to do with democracy and the rule of law. So what else is new?The executives in this lethal game bid for contracts, fight for promotion, secure their lives on the roads. Fighting lethal duels in souped up, heavily armoured cars on the empty motorways of the future.Chris Faulkener has a lethal reputation and a new job at Shorn Associates. Has he got what it takes to make a real killing?
Industry Reviews
His writing and dialogue are still as sharp as flick-knives... this is a real fast-forward thriller from a major talent. -- John Jarrold SFX It's a bleak, violent portrait of a world which is only a few heartbeats and regime changes from our own. Imagine Michael Moore, George Orwell and Philip K Dick collaborating on a novel and you're halfway to realising what a mind-blowing book this is. -- George Walkley Ink Magazine Morgan's depictions of road battles are truly stunning -- I challenge you to fold the page and put the book down in the middle of one -- you simply can't do it. Another "Certificate 18" killer read that you'd be a fool to miss! -- Stuart Carter Infinity Plus This near future thriller starts with a bang and immediately we know that we are once more in the company of the UK's freshest and hardest hitting of the new wave genre writers. Morgan's writing is as explosive and energized as one could hope for. This is an accessible and intensely exciting work. By far the sharpest book I've read in the last year, Market Forces is highly recommended. -- John Berlyne SFRevu
