Parrish v Zombies

Dancing with Skeleton’s has a super review of Nylon Angel and a pretty picture of the first edition cover, which I love.

“Marianne de Pierres has created a very believable and nicely detailed context, a dystopian future that has a nice plausible feel to it. Parrish Plessis is a great character, tough, uncompromising and really good in a fight, she is also thoroughly confused and trying not to be stupid. She has the drive required to push the story forward and the depth of personality to be consistently engaging. The plot threads that wind about her are very well constructed and are balanced very carefully with opportunities for the cast and context to come to the fore.
The supporting cast are credible and full of life, there is a strong sense of the pulsing competing life in the Tert, it crowds the page and frames the action very well. Great fun.”

And speaking of Parrish, it’s been mooted by certain parties that Parrish should take on Zombies. Now that is something I could really get into. But when will get time to do this one?
