description: A tropic of slack jawed nutters where Justice is as rare as a jelly fossil. Where angel refineries stand like gravestones and rotten hearts are piled in the sabotage yard. A home for the socket faced masses.And Barny Juno. A man so desperate to get rid of Magenta Blaze, so that he can be with Chloe Low, that he’s willing to go to the shaman Beltane Carom for advice.Obsessed by Chloe, Juno doesn’t realise that the demonic insect king Sweeney is after him again - sending the demon Skittermite to `aggravate him unto death’.Using Mayor Rudloe’s latest drive towards a state of constant readiness, his root and branch review and clamour of ear-grinding excuses Skittermite plans to understand the way of things, blend in and imitate. Then the horror . . .Accomplice: the literary equivalent of digging a shallow hole, doing a headstand in it and claiming you’re wearing the world as a hat.
