Quote:

“He had recognised the colours of his attackers. They were The Psychopomps, one of the mid-sized Western gangcults. Mostly girls. They favoured spiked heels, fishnet body-stockings, basques, glam make-up, stormcloud hairdos, painted fingernail implants, Russian pop music, Kray-Zee pills, random violence, facial mutilations and Kar-Tel Kustom Kars. Compared with the Maniax, the Clean or The Bible Belt, they were easy-goers. After all, they had only killed three of the resettlers.”
