Futuristic Violence And Fancy Suits

Pargin, Jason
Originally published under author's pseudonym, David Wong. Zoey Ashe #1. A bit in the future, Zoey lives in a trailer park and works at a small coffee shop. A LOT of violence happens, but works out OK except for all the folks who die/are injured.

Smoke Quote:

She shouldn't be in this bad of shape, she had quit smoking when she was fifteen.

Quote:

Zoey was disappointed that the van didn't explode into a fireball like in old action movies, but was one of the downsides of electric car technology.

Quote:

We want to sew doubt about why she's so confident. -- "sew"? How about sow?

Quote:

Without turning away from the wall, Armando said, "This man, is he still around?" -- WOAH, I said!

Quote:

...paint it, modify it, put real tactical sites on it... -- "sites"?? Maybe, "sights"?

I'm Starting to Worry About This Black Box of Doom

Pargin, Jason
Synopsis from Good Reads: Outside Los Angeles, a driver pulls up to find a young woman sitting on a large black box. She offers him $200,000 cash to transport her and that box across the country, to Washington, DC. -- Yeah, outside of Los Angeles...like 86 miles in Victorville!!

Quote:

Sometimes she liked to have a little puddle of [sugar] granules at the end; it was like the coffee's dessert.

Quote:

"If you think about it," she said, "Party City is kind of the apex of human civilization."

Zoey Is Too Drunk For This Dystopia

Pargin, Jason
Zoey Ashe, #3. There's an election going on. Who is Zoey and her crew supporting? Plus, there are three women missing from a brothel. One that Zoey owns, of course.

Quote:

She looked down at the Doritos bag, the animated flaming-triangle logo dancing above a heap of dusted chips, as if looking to it for advice. Receiving none, she started running.

Zoey Punches The Future In The Dick

Pargin, Jason
Zoey Ashe, #2. Very funny, and violent. I think I could do with less of the cannibalism, but it IS funny. Sometimes.

Quote:

"...A bodyguard who hides and shoots from fifty yards away is probably being a bit too proactive in his duties."

Quote:

"Ah, it's a solid life rule that if Will Blackwater hands you a weapon, it either isn't loaded, or there is a much larger one pointed at your back."
