Durham Red Novels (Black Flame)

Obviously if you have a series of Johnny Alpha novels it has be said that Durham Red must follow and she does, with these five action packed yarns!

'Mutant. Vampire. Total babe! Former Search and Destroy Agent Durham Red is stranded over a thousand years into a future she doesn't want. To the mutant underclass, she's a messiah, a beacon of light to rally around. To humankind she's a terrifying blasphemy that should be hunted down and destroyed. All Red wants is to get her kicks while she still can but a nightmare tribe of blood-worshippers have other ideas. The moon of Lavannos seems like the perfect place to lie low but Red discovers that the frozen world hides horrors more terrifying than she could possibly imagine!'

'After a failed attempt to get past an Iconoclast fleet, Red is forced to seek refuge on the planet Purity. It is a harsh world and the citizens have outlawed all forms of technology. Now something is stirring in Purity's darkest streets: citizens are being slaughtered by a creature of unimaginable strength and ferocity. With techno-heretics on one side and swor-wielding inquisitors on the other, Red finds herself being hunted...'

Again another excellent series of novels from Black Flame and I really enjoyed these, as they made me go back and re-read all her stories in 2000 AD
