Michael Marshall Smith’s surreal, groundbreaking, and award-winning debut which resonates with wild humour interlaced with dark recollections of an emotional minefield. Stark lives in Colour, a neighbourhood whose inhabitants like to be co-ordinated with their surroundings – a neighbourhood where spangly purple trousers are admired by the walls of buildings as you pass them. Close by is Sound, where you mustn’t make any, apart from one designated hour a day when you can scream your lungs raw. Then there’s Red – get off at Fuck Station Zero if you want to see a tactical nuclear battle recreated as a sales demonstration. Stark has friends in Red, which is just as well because Something is about to happen. And when a Something happens it’s no good chanting ‘Duck and cover’ while cowering in a corner, because a Something is always from the past, Stark’s past, and it won’t go away until you face it full on.]]> Sat, 22 Oct 1994 18:09:40 +0200 Hannah Green and Her Unfeasibly Mundane Existence https://ebooks.library.land/michael-marshall-smith/48298-hannah_green_and_her_unfeasibly_mundane_existence.html https://ebooks.library.land/michael-marshall-smith/48298-hannah_green_and_her_unfeasibly_mundane_existence.html

Hannah Green and Her Unfeasibly Mundane Existence

It’s not every day that the Devil knocks on your door From the critically-acclaimed author of Only Forward comes a delightful new tale about Hannah, a young girl living a mundane existence in California, who discovers that her grandfather has been friends with the Devil for the past 150 years . . . and now, they need her help.]]> Sun, 22 Oct 2017 18:09:39 +0300 Spares https://ebooks.library.land/michael-marshall-smith/48299-spares.html https://ebooks.library.land/michael-marshall-smith/48299-spares.html Spares

They were raised for one chilling purpose.... A loner, an ex-cop, Jack Randall is the dangerous veteran of a savage war. All he's held dear has long been destroyed. For the last five years, he's been hiding out on a Spares Farm, guarding those who've been prisoners from birth. Now he's on the run with seven of the Farm's inmates (well, six and a half), and the people who own them will do anything to get them back. What's worse, Jack is on a head-on collision course with a cold-blooded killer with one purpose: to cancel Jack once and for all. Jack has a tough decision to make: keep running or even the score. Either way spells trouble...the kind of trouble most people run screaming from. Who are the Spares? And what is their purpose? That is the most shocking revelation of all.

It's not what you've done that counts it's what you remember.... If you could sell your conscience, could you get away with murder? Hap Thompson works the gray area between truth and lies. He works for REMtemp, taking on other people's memories. It's illegal, but usually harmless. Maybe a petty criminal wants to pass a lie detector test. Or an unfaithful spouse wants to enjoy a guiltless affair. All Hap has to do is carry the memories for a couple of hours. It's easy money. Until a beautiful young woman who committed murder leaves her memory with Hap and won't take it back. Now Hap is on the run: from the LAPD, from six angels of death in gray suits and sunglasses, and from the best hit man in the business his ex-wife. Even worse, people all around Hap are disappearing in a strange white light. His only hope is to negotiate with a guy who may be much more than he seems, so he can stay alive long enough to discover who is and who isn't...]]> Thu, 22 Oct 1998 18:09:40 +0300 Everything You Need https://ebooks.library.land/michael-marshall-smith/48297-everything_you_need.html https://ebooks.library.land/michael-marshall-smith/48297-everything_you_need.html
