The Seagulls Have Landed

Eddie and the Gang with No Name #3

by Colin Bateman

You would think Eddie Malone - hero, warrior, gang leader, intent on world domination - would have had enough of babies. And you would be right...But losing a baby is not good. And if it belongs to your mum, well - it's a disaster. Eddie is at his lowest ebb. Until Mo, Gary, Ivan Cutler and the others appear. Maybe Eddie will have his Gang after all. But what should he call it?

[Lizzy · Rating 3 out of 5]

Nice sunday read- exciting, filled with drugs and peril- and interesting to boot! Having no experience of gangs I really enjoyed all the turf stuff. Also good messages going on- give refugees a chance, diabled people are REAL too, watch out for drugs...all that sort of thing. Mo's great, and Eddie is very entertaining. Blagging gets you places! I'd actually give this three and a half stars if I could.
