'"It was just one of those girly little fights we have my precious little sparkles my little fudgy wudgy bunnikins so drop the gun my little sparkles dear cos i know it isn't loaded and i hate to break it to ya honey child but this one is."
'Life Kills follows the dark journey and twisted mind ravines of a mysterious unnamed terrorist as he goes about his business. On his flight, stewards Bubbles and Sparkles, pilots Brad and Chad and a bunch of burnt out z-list hackster celebrities face their own particular brands of demons. Our terrorist antihero, torn between burning passion and mindless passivity, faces some terrible choices, while the ever-present Inflight Infotainment becomes more powerful and sinister as the story unfolds.' (From the publisher's website.)
