'''''Nylon Angel''''' is a [[postcyberpunk]] novel by [[science fiction]] author [[Marianne de Pierres]] |
|||
==Plot summary== |
|||
The story is set in post-apocalyptic Australia, around a city called the Tert. There, a [[bounty hunter]]/[[bodyguard]] named Parrish Plessis has ended up working for a ganglord called Jamon Mondo. She wants out, and her answer arrives in the form of two men wanted in connection with the killing of a [[journalist]] called Razz Retribution (In this world, the army, churches and the government have given up on the world, so it is now ruled by the media). |
|||
The story is divided between the Tert, a rundown slum reminiscent of [[Mega-City One]], and Viva City (a pun on the word [[wikt:vivacity|vivacity]]), a walled suburb some forty kilometres up the coast. |
|||
==Adaptations== |
|||
A role playing game based on the series has been created by White Mice Worldbuilding.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.whitemicegames.com.au/cgi-bin/users/productList.pl?productTypeID=1|title=White Mice Worldbuilding|accessdate=2009-01-20}}</ref> |
