Part one of the unmissable Blade series.

So what am I going to tell you? Not much so don't get excited. You probably want to know my name. Well, that's a bit of a problem. I got loads. But there is one name I like. Everybody called me it in the old days. No one does now cos no one in this city knows it. And that's fine. I don't like to remember. But I do like the name. You can use it if you want.

BLADE.

Previously published in two parts as Blade: Playing Dead and Blade: Closing In, this is a stunning new package for this groundbreaking series. Narrated by Blade himself, be prepared to enter his world. It's not pretty . . . it's urban, real and dangerous. As Blade's story unfolds, readers will become completely hooked by this unforgettable character.

Complete the series with Blade 2: Flight, Blade 3: Firestorm, and Blade 4: Endgame.

A remarkable and riveting series.

A modern classic.

Startlingly original - there's nothing like it out there at all. I truly can't praise this series highly enough.

Stunning new thriller

It was a thrilling and exhilarating novel and I would give it 10 out of 10 in a star rating.

As sharp as its title suggests, this is a relentless and brilliant page turner.

Bowler has created a tough, dynamic character who promises plenty of tension, action and attitude.

Sharply written without a wasted word.
