In the visceral conclusion to the Vicious Circle trilogy (following 2016’s The Empty Ones), punk rocker Carey and his companions battle so-called angels—extradimensional parasites capable of transforming humans into immortal monsters, who in turn conspire to create more angels—in a seemingly ceaseless struggle stretching across the decades. The story unfolds across two time periods simultaneously. In mid-1980s Los Angeles, Carey hits rock bottom after losing his best friend, only to make an unlikely ally who motivates him to fight ever harder against the angels. In 2013, Carey’s new friend, stuntwoman Kaitlyn, discovers the true nature of the angels and the universe itself, leading to a mind-blowing new level of complexity in the conflict. As the two stories interweave, it all comes to one final desperate attempt to save all of reality, but the cost may be Carey’s humanity. Appropriately for a science fiction tale with punk-rock overtones, this story is raw, reckless, and grimy. Carey’s alcohol-fueled desperation and Kaitlyn’s worldly optimism work well together, and the narrative barrels towards a conclusion that suits the book’s bizarre late-night movie feel. Agent: Sam Morgan, JABberwocky Literary. (Dec.)
The concluding volume in the humorous punk rock adventure that began with The Unnoticeables and The Empty Ones.
After the events of the first two books of the Vicious Circle series, Carey and Randall reached LA during the early `80s punk scene, which was heavily mixed up with Chinatown. A young Chinese girl with silver hair is the Empty One that seems to run things there, and her ex-lover, an Empty One named Zang, has apparently turned against them and may or may not be on Carey's side.
In modern times, Kaitlyn and company have also returned to LA because her powers have been growing and she has been having visions that may be telling her how to kill all of the angels. The downside being that they have to find a new one, first--and LA is the only place they know where to do that.
Steeped in the LA punk scene in the `80s, Chinatown, sunken suburbs, the ocean and gargantuan things that swim in it, Kill All Angels is everything that fans of Robert Brockway's irreverent humor have been looking for to end the series with a bang.
