Back in 1977, an essential part of my science-fiction thrills came from The Galaxy's Greatest Comic, 2000AD; two and a half decades later, I got the opportunity to write for one of it's best known characters - the iconic lawman of the future, Judge Dredd...

I AM THE LAW: THE JUDGE DREDD OMNIBUS

This omnibus edition is a collection of Black Flame's first four Judge Dredd novels, including my first Dredd book Eclipse.

In Dredd Vs Death, Judge Dredd finds himself up against a plague spreading through Mega-City One, and teams up with Judge Anderson and ex-Judge DeMarco to investigate a trail of carnage by the Death Cult. Bad Moon Rising sees Dredd up against human xenophobes set on destroying an alien ghetto. In Black Atlantic, Dredd must stop a bio-weapon that is progammed to destroy everything in its path; and in Eclipse, Dredd heads off-world to bring the rioting Luna-1 colony back under control.
