As the plot winds on, it's interesting to see how the five characters come together, and there are some sneaky dollops of very black humour, but the main focus is a dark, gritty, violent futuristic adventure - and on this vital count, ''The A-Men'' genuinely delivers. A finalist in the Art Council's [http://youwriteon.com YouWriteOn Book Awards] in 2009, I can recommend it to all readers who enjoy dense, dark, dystopian sci-fi.
If dark urban settings are your thing, then you might also enjoy [[Half the Blood of Brooklyn (Joe Pitt Novel) by Charlie Huston]]. You could also look at [[The Steel Remains by Richard Morgan]]. We also have a review of [[The A-Men Return by John Trevillian]].
