    After a shootout claims the life of his partner in a condemned tenement building on Pearl Street, Detective John Tallow unwittingly stumbles across an apartment stacked high with guns. When examined, each weapon leads to a different, previously unsolved murder. Someone has been killing people for 20 years or more and storing the weapons together for some inexplicable purpose. Confronted with the sudden emergence of hundreds of unsolved homicides, Tallow soon discovers that he's walked into a veritable deal with the devil.

    Diane says: "Perfect marriage between writer and narrator"
    "Warren Ellis needs to write more novels"

    Story
    What made the experience of listening to Gun Machine the most enjoyable?

    Reg E. Cathey was the perfect narrator for this story. The narrator made Ellis' writing even better.


    What was one of the most memorable moments of Gun Machine?

    The @#$% You robot had my sides splitting.


    Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

    I laughed very much through this book. .


    Any additional comments?

    Ellis imagination is twisted and fun. I love his comic's especially Transmetropolitan His novels are just as visually spectacular as any work an artist has done in his funny books. I can't wait till he does more. I also wouldn't mind if he ever finished his New Universal Story..... I know its been ages but damn I need some closure.

    For more than two centuries, the land of Albion has been ruled by the supposedly benevolent Watchmaker, who imposes precision on every aspect of life. Young Owen Hardy from the village of Barrel Arbor dreams of seeing the big city and the breathtaking Clockwork Angels that dispense wisdom to the people, maybe even catching a glimpse of the Watchmaker himself. He watches the steamliners drift by, powered by alchemical energy, as they head toward Crown City....

    Scott says: "Great with the album, decent YA novel alone"
