Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. A Better Kind of Hate is a brutal, uncompromising short story collection steeped in noir violence, moral rot, and vigilante justice. Many of the stories orbit Bishop Rider, a rogue antihero who operates in the margins of a corrupt city, dispensing punishment where the legal system fails-or ref…uses-to act. Rider's world is one where justice is transactional, mercy is weakness, and survival demands cruelty. Through his voice and those of similarly damaged narrators, the collection explores the thin line between protector and predator, asking whether eradicating monsters inevitably requires becoming one.Beyond Rider-centric stories, the collection widens its scope to include criminals, victims, and broken men shaped by betrayal, abuse, and obsession. These standalone narratives are raw and psychologically intense, often driven by revenge, sexual violence, and long-simmering trauma. Johnson's characters are rarely sympathetic in a traditional sense, yet their rage and despair are rendered with a confrontational honesty that forces the reader to sit with their ugliness rather than look away.Unified by themes of hatred as both fuel and poison, A Better Kind of Hate presents a bleak vision of morality in collapse. Justice here is not clean or redemptive-it is messy, personal, and frequently indistinguishable from cruelty. The collection ultimately suggests that in a world stripped of fairness and restraint, hate may be the only force powerful enough to drive action, even as it corrodes everything it touches. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Liberating Rhonda is a spicy, sometimes explicit, Sixties coming-of-age tale during the early days of Women's Liberation. This story pushes the social and sexual boundaries at that time to the limit. Rhonda and her best friend forever discover boys, and vice versa. Book one of this trilogy, L…iberating Rhonda, takes an adult and sometimes racy look at her trials and tribulations, romantic relationships, loves and losses. Her best girlfriend growing up, Gwen O'Rourke, is not quite as adventuresome, but she's smart, attractive, and anxious to learn along with her very close friend. 'I want it all, everything there is to life! What's wrong with wanting all you can get Doesn't everybody want everything possible in their lives Being a liberated woman is the perfect way to get what you want out of life. Unless you take a taste, you've missed out. I want to taste it all!'.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Bishop Rider is back. In this relentless follow-up to A Better Kind of Hate, Beau Johnson returns to the blood-soaked trail of the indie world's most polarizing vigilante. The world is a cold, uncaring engine-a "Big Machine" designed to grind the innocent into the dirt. But Bishop Rider is the… wrench in those gears, a man driven by a singular, violent purpose: to hunt down the predators who think they are untouchable and remind them what it feels like to be prey.Originally released in 2018 and long out of print, this reissued collection features a "patchwork narrative" of interconnected stories that hit like a shotgun blast to the chest. From the darkest corners of the human condition to the visceral satisfaction of a debt paid in blood, Johnson's lean, razor-sharp prose skips the filler and goes straight for the throat. There is no fluff here-only the grit, the grime, and the dark humor of a man who has looked into the abyss and decided to bite back.The Big Machine Eats is more than just a sequel; it is a deep dive into the psychological toll of a life defined by vengeance. As Rider navigates a landscape of serial killers and abusers, he solidifies his place as the ultimate avatar of righteous fury. For fans of hardboiled crime and extreme noir, this definitive edition brings a modern classic of the genre back into the light, proving that while the machine may be hungry, Bishop Rider is much harder to swallow.What Folks are saying"Beau is back, once again proving he is the alchemist of conflict as he continues to peel back the fingernails of human frailty and forces us to stare into the darkness found there."-Tom Pitts, author of Hustle"Beau Johnson excels at the base, those twisted places we don't want to go. Whether that is sexually motivated, or fueled by revenge or something more sinister (if not all three at once), Johnson puts his subjects beneath the microscope. What we get is, yes, the truth, but more than that: we get an extreme close-up of the horrifically beautiful."-Joe Clifford, author of Say My Name"Beau Johnson has put together a collection of stories so compelling that you will want to set aside a few hours each time you come to it. One just isn't enough, and the next thing you know you'll be grumpy at work because you stayed up way past your bedtime."-Paul Heatley, author of Tom Rollins thrillers"Beau Johnson takes you to dark places and shines a light on the ugly things that happen there. His perfectly created, bigger-than-life Bishop Rider is a modern-day anti-hero and Johnson writes the surrounding stories with savage suspense. The Big Machine Eats is the perfect follow-up to his debut A Better Kind of Hate."-Marietta Miles, author of Route 12 and May"These deliciously dark stories will stay with you long after you've read them. Johnson is a natural storyteller-insightful, empathic, and, above all, brutally honest. He takes readers places they really don't want to go, drawing them into a grubby underworld of bad guys doing very bad things to very bad people. Retribution is a common theme, and Johnson never shirks from the grisly details as his characters come up with even more inventive ways to settle old scores. Revenge, here, isn't just served cold-it's delivered on ice, and then some. The Big Machine Eats is a gripping collection from a writer at the top of his game."-Gary Duncan, author of You're Not Supposed To Cry Bishop Rider returns in Beau Johnson's The Big Machine Eats. This reissued, hardboiled noir collection tracks the polarizing vigilante through interconnected stories as he hunts predators, skips the filler, and righteous fury. This item is printed on demand.
