Description

From the wicked imagination of award-winning writer Warren Ellis comes DEAD PIG COLLECTOR, a love story with a classic Ellis twist. So while it might be a love story, it's also about killing people and disposing of their bodies in the most efficient manner possible. DEAD PIG COLLECTOR introduces readers to Mister Sun, a very proficient businessman whose trade is the murder and spotless removal of human beings. Like any businessman, he knows each transaction is only as good as his client - and today's client, in Los Angeles, has turned out to be so dangerously stupid that Mister Sun's work and life are now in jeopardy...

A quickly amusing dark tale by Fearsome Uncle Warren, Dead Pig Collector is tightly written and even whimsical. Ellis manages to fit exactly the right amount of detail in these 29 pages.

Downbeat but enjoyable story of a hitman/body disposal expert whose current job in LA turns out to be a bit unusual. Gruesome, fairly unbelievable, and a bit inevitable, perhaps, but well written. Will Wheaton's audiobook narration is excellent.

It also introduces a neat little love story, something I would never have expected from the author.

Loved it. And, being a Canadian, I
