Thanks to our sponsor, Mulholland Books, publisher of Warren Ellis' "brutal, hard-boiled cop novel" Gun Machine.

From Cory's review of Gun Machine:

Gun Machine is a novel that never stops to draw breath. It's a monster of a book, bowel-looseningly scary in places, darkly uproarious in others, and remorseless as the killer who hunts in its pages. Ellis never disappoints, but this is particularly good, even by the high standards of a Warren Ellis tale.

This is Gun Machine
