Product Description
CLAWS OF THUNDER is the second book in the CLAWS TRILOGY, taking up the story where CLAWS OF FURY left off. A year after Ninelives killed Warrod the Cur and the Katzers ousted the Mangies from Katzburgh, a new threat faces the feline warriors: the Dogbowl River is drying up, cutting off their water source, and the weather is becoming terrifyingly extreme. So Ninelives leads Tabith, Mynx and Spacer on a mission to find the cause of the eco-disaster, a journey which takes them up the river to its source in the territory of the feared Upriver Mangies. Along the way they brave electric storms, giant mutant creatures and deadly harassment by Mangies. But after they rescue her from an attack by a giant weresquirrel, they hook up with renegade Mangy chieftain Scarab, who soon becomes a doughty ally in their quest. In a thrilling showdown, Ninelives and his crew escape the clutches of the Upriver tribes, only to be hunted down by the chief of all the Mangies, Warrod the Cur’s successor Gizzard the Merciless. Once more Ninelives goes mano a mano against the deadliest of foes, in a struggle in which the winner takes all. Like CLAWS OF FURY, CLAWS OF THUNDER also features a cover by well-known comic book artist Kevin Hopgood (JUDGE DREDD, 2000 AD, IRON MAN.)
