Vickers by Mick Farren

traveller1's review

3.0

Another entertaining Farren, one I had not previously read. A corporatised, dystopian future, in which a hard mercenary, who works for the company, infiltrates a nuclear bunker housing thousands of people, owned by another corp. His mission—to uncover just what is going on in the bunker, however, this he finds out the hard way. Nuclear war breaks out and he is trapped, and employed as an enforcer to assassinate anyone who opposes the bunker bigwigs. The kicker in this is that there was no war, the bunker inhabitants were tricked. With a little intrigue our protagonist discovers this truth, kills the bad guys in charge, and liberates the bunkers inhabitants. Cool.

Again, with Farren, it is not the story per se, but rather the people and situations.

Crap. Would have given it no stars if I could have.
