Daygo's Fury - John F O' Sullivan

It's not easy to survive in the slums. Liam is an orphan, living with eight others in a dilapidated flat. Every day is a battle in the war to survive. As conditions deteriorate, and casualties rise, Liam begins to lose faith. He looks at the bums on the side of the streets with hatred. They've given up the fight. They are weak. But it frightens him, how he sometimes longs for their life. Panic grows within his chest. Racquel offers him hope, something good to live for, in a place where there seems nothing but dirt.

The beasts in the north, considered only a surreal page in history, raise their heads and consider, once again, marching south. Daygo flows, but which way will the current pull ...
