Ack-Ack Macaque

Gareth L Powell

From Shelf: Books

In 1944, as German ninjas parachute into Kent, Britain's hopes lie with a cigar-chomping monkey Spitfire pilot. A century later, journalist Victoria Valois is hunting the man who killed her husband, while the heir to the Franco-British throne breaks into a research facility and goes on the run. And the countdown to Armageddon has begun...

In 1944, as waves of German ninjas parachute into Kent, Britain's best hopes for victory lie with a Spitfire pilot codenamed 'Ack-Ack Macaque.' The trouble is, Ack-Ack Macaque is a cynical, one-eyed, cigar-chomping monkey, and he's starting to doubt everything, including his own existence.

A century later, in a world where France and Great Britain merged in the late 1950s and nuclear-powered Zeppelins circle the globe, ex-journalist Victoria Valois finds herself drawn into a deadly game of cat and mouse with the man who butchered her husband and stole her electronic soul. Meanwhile, in Paris, after taking part in an illegal break-in at a research laboratory, the heir to the British throne goes on the run. And all the while, the doomsday clock ticks towards Armageddon.
