Leepus | THE RIVER by Jamie Delano
Leepus - THE RIVER is the second novel by Jamie Delano featuring Leepus and his peregrinations among the odd peoples and landscapes of Inglund. While it builds upon some characters and the environment introduced in Leepus - DIZY, it is nonetheless a stand-lone story.
In THE RIVER, Leepus embarks on board the Black Sow for an upriver odyssey into the murky heart of the wetlunds in support of a pal in trouble. Things get increasingly dark and intriguing as he is forced to juggle the blance of power between such competing interests as the OurFuture elitist youth militia; hardcore monk extremists, the Grey Brothers; and the mysterious Eeley Temple to achieve a ramshackle justice and stay out of the World of the Drownded.
File under: Weird fiction. Ripping yarn. Alternate reality dystopia. Black comedy. Picaresque adventure. Brutal mystery. Poetic action.
Jamie Delano, who was born in 1954, has contributed to the comic book medium in a variety of ways, scripting both original works (World Without End, Tainted, Ghostdancing, Hell Eternal, Cruel and Unusual, Territory, Outlaw Nation) and publisher-owned franchises (Captain Britain, Dr Who, Night Raven, Hellblazer, Animal Man, Batman, Shadowman) over the course of 25 years. He is currently preparing for retirement, and he and his companion, Sue, live in a semi-rural area of England.
