Bag om The Bad Lot
Earth..... it is sometime in the future. The planet is ravaged by war, disease, over-population, civil unrest, and a host of other problems. The one-world government is riven with corruption and dealing with problems it cannot solve. The discovery of a new planet changes the situation, but there is conflict over who should be allowed to live there; the criminals of the world, or just non-criminals and the disease-free, hoping to start a new life. A criminal gang of outcasts escape from a brutal European prison and form a strange alliance with a powerful politician, each with their own reasons in mind. Together they battle against sinister forces and deadly alien creatures while civilisation itself begins to disintegrate around them. A further complication arises when explorers on the newly-discovered planet encounter the indigenous peoples, who have their own troubles to deal with. Good must battle evil and win if there is to be a future for either world. This is an apocalyptic thrill-ride where the forces of good and evil battle it out for the future of humanity, and nothing is as it seems. Gripping from start to finish and full of surprises and humor, you will love this book.
