Format:Paperback
As heroes go, Absloom Daak is about as anti as they get. He's a mass-murderer, pirate, pillager, racist, sexist, violent drunk and worse - exiled to dalek-space to fight for as long as he can stay alive... the average being a little over 2 hours. Daak manages rather longer, despite his cheery death-wish.
Despite his nasty personality, he's capable of love, but as with all his other feelings it's an obsessive, irrational, cliched and self-destructive love. And it's this irrational love that drives most of the book, giving Daak just one reason to live besides from killing yet more Daleks.
Yes, it's all pretty corny stuff, but you get to see him rip open masses of Dalek's with a chainsaw on every other page, so who cares! We're in it to see some Dalek guts! Besides, in the closing chapters it does improve somewhat - especially when a mysterious stranger known only as 'The Doctor' turns up...
Sadly this isn't quite the complete Absloom Daak - more was written on Daak some time after this was published, along with Taiyin, Salander, Harma, Mercurius, the daleks and the rest - but you'd never know: the book ends perfectly and seemingly definitely. However, a sequel surely should be forthcoming soon - it's all been drawn and pblished, it just needs republishing in graphic novel format.
