Paul Blachard's debut novel is a highly original slice of British science-fantasy.

 

Welcome to the world according to Veratas Maldoror, philosopher, martial artist and time traveller. Through his eyes we explore a fantastical post-apocalyptic future, where philosophers fight tyranny.

 

'Histories' is multi-layered. A scathing critique of consumer greed and Bush/Blair imperialism. A philosophical essay on free-speech. But it is also a breathtaking thriller in a unique setting: civil war engulfs already poisoned landscapes, and the entire American continent is the domain of mutated man-eating spiders!
