Rebel Without A Crew - Noor, Kerrie A

. .

Résumé :
A coup of the century is underway, and Mex is too hungover to care. While Hilda, the new leader, retreats to her pleasure dome, a coup rises to the occasion. And with Mex living it up in Scotland, there's little resistance beyond a hippy colony too chilled to care, a ruthless reporter who will side with anyone who pays enough, and a missing set of batteries. Despite never leading anything bigger than a study group, they decide to run the planet the proletarian way -until the leader returns to snatch back her power. The resistance turns to Mex, a woman with more conquests than Alexander the Great, but is Mex willing to give up her retirement for a group of rebels, too young to be taken seriously? Rebel Without A Crew is the sixth in the comic Planet Hy Man series. If you love Terry Pratchett's satire and Douglas Adams' absurdity, then buy today and blast into a cosmic clash of cocktails, coups, and questionable leadership....
