Publisher's Blurb
Belly Rave is hell, but for a brainwashed boy, an angry girl and an out-of-work impressario Belly Rave is home. And as failing lawyer Charles Mundin soon discovers, its putrid sewers and savage alleys are heaven compared to the depravity and corruption of the ‘civilized’ world outside.
A story of an amoral America in the grip of corporate tyranny, Gladiator-at-Law is a terrifyingly believable vision of our future.
