The Outsider

Synopsis

One man escaping the tyranny of an occupied Europe, seeks freedom in the mid American Territories. But this in no ordinary man. Trained as a soldier and spy of the German Reich, and with unusual and special talents, Karl Llywelyn attempts to change his planned destiny as a killer, but finds his unique skill set inevitably lead him back to the gun.Together with a Motorcycle Club, Karl fights a violent path across an alternative North America, travelling through a beautiful landscape that’s instantly recognisable but in an unfamiliar society. Karl and his friends face a series of threats to their life and liberty, and come out fighting as only bikers can.Set in 1983, The Outsider is the first in a series of intelligent, imaginative stories setting humour against a bleak background of the American West, where gangs control much of the land and power still comes from the barrel of a gun. Equal parts action western, fantasy adventure, thriller and social commentary, with a little detective novel and historic content thrown in for good measure, this book defies the narrow definition of any particular genre.A thumping good read.
