Bill James is the alter ego of two South African authors who have drunk together, sold books together, and now finally written a book together. That does not make it a bromance. Despite their having collaborated on a steamy sex scene.

Their first book together has no redeeming qualities whatsoever.
Set in Johannesburg in the near future, Big Day Out is a mad mercenary romp through the dystopian nightmare that Covid-19 might have become. Might still become, if we don't keep our self-appointed leaders on a very short leash.
Good old-fashioned don't-give-a-toss action. You don't like it, don't buy it.
We've all had those nights where drunken sex with a witch in a blood pentagram under a full moon on the roof of your favourite Johannesburg nightclub summons a hard-drinking demon who changes the fate of the human race forever.
Right?
No?
Just me, then?
