by George R.R. Martin
$8.90 Now $5.90 Save 34%
Wild Cards: Down and Dirty - Thryft
Wild Cards: Down and Dirty - Thryft

Superhumans in gritty urban underworld warfare.

If you're enamored with the notion of a world where superpowers are a reality but come with serious social implications, "Wild Cards: Down and Dirty" could be just what you're looking for. The anthology combines the intrigue of a superhuman society with the gritty realism of street-level crime, all woven together by the deft storytelling of George R.R. Martin and other talented writers. It's a fresh take on the superhero genre, focusing on the human element behind the powers.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

When an alien virus struck the Earth decades ago, it spawned a new breed of superhuman men and women. Those with useful mutations were known as Aces, those with deformities as Jokers. Now, in New York's Jokertown, a savage street war has broken out between the Mafia and a gang known as the Shadow Fists. A courageous band of Aces must go underground to wage a war against the powers of the criminal netherworld. Edited by George R.R. Martin and including a story by him, this volume also features stories from Roger Zelazny, Pat Cadigan, Melinda M. Snodgrass and many more.
