The Blue War
| Over a decade ago Earth's Colonial Forces battled in a bloody war against the blue-skinned Ha Jiin people. Now, the hard-won peace is about to crumble as the work of an Earth-owned biotech corporation goes disastrously wrong. It's up to a retired forces veteran and now private detective to save the day.
Jeremy Stake the private detective is brought in to go to Sinan, which is a planet in another dimension to work for the corporation to investigator why this small village is now growing by it's self using smart matter and duplicating it's design on Punktown in every detail. The locals are now calling it Bluetown and the fear is that it will wipe out all the other towns and cites and start a new war between Ha Jinn, Jin Hass, and the Earth Colonies. Why would such a war start, well it something to do with the special gas which is find within Sinan and fuels the dimensionally travel system. With it the earth colonies and it allies will loss the power it has gained. Now this does sound a bit like the problem on earth now with the oil supply running out ? This is fourth in the series of Punk Town novels by Jeffery Thomas, and not having read any of his books before I was impressed by the imagination of the author taking many elements from earth based ideas. The only problem with the book was a bit too much lovely duffy stuff which just bores the pants off me. Overall this very good read and I may go back and try some of his other books out soon. |
