Gangs, killers, and vampires. One war-torn detective is the one hope of success for a crime-ridden orbiting city... Knife Runner matches Se7en in this gritty five-story collection from New York Times and USA Today best-selling writer Anthony Ryan. Alex McLeod paid dearly through the war for freedom from Earth. It still left the detective disfigured, jaded and alone. In the aftermath of success, Alex seethes as unlawful factions and cold-blooded killers clash over control of the newly-liberated confederation. In his crusade for justice in the free areas, he's eager to break more than a few rules on the way... The sole home Alex understands is the slums of Slab, an orbiting city teeming with lowlifes, back-stabbers and gene-spliced monstrosities. From the grimy pavements of his city to the lawless Asteroid Belt, Alex should go toe-to-toe with a sharp-clawed vigilante, a mythical serial killer, and a beautiful vampire with an ominous meaning. His goal won't end until his homeland earns the liberty it was guaranteed... But even Alex may not have the ability to stop the impending Reckoning and a voyage to the main one place he swore he'd never go back: Earth... Slab City Blues: The Collected Reviews consists of four enjoyable novellas and one sensational book set in a world of hard-boiled sci-fi and cyberpunk. If you like hard-nosed detectives, futuristic planets and pulse-pounding action, then you'll love Anthony Ryan's world of vampires, werewolves and space.
