"A book no Batman fan should miss. If ever a work of fiction featuring a comics character deserved to be compulsory reading, this is surely it."
author of Batman: Shadow of the Bat |
In the heart of Gotham's darkness glows the cold garish neon of the sex industry, the feverish eyes of desperate drug addicts, the streetlights creating shadows in which muggers patiently wait. This is where Batman's most personaland most savagebattle begins. And where he must confront a vortex of violence so profound that those who survive lose their souls.
"The most stylish adaptation of a comic book figure yet...cold stiletto prose and white-hot passions." |
In the match of the century, one of today's most powerful crime novelists brings his years of ground-zero experience with abused children to the adventures of the most popular super hero of our time. Andrew Vachss, hailed by the Washington Post as "Lord of the Asphalt Jungle," introduces Batman to the ultimate eviland to a shocking revelation about the night-rider's own origins. |
