Ack-Ack Macaque: The Complete Trilogy

Once, twice, three times a monkey… The complete omnibus collection of the startling, fast-paced SF starring a cigar-chomping monkey, nuclear-powered Zeppelins, electronic souls and a battle to avert armageddon. A new edition in the Solaris Classics selection. Welcome to Europe in 2058, a place where Britain and France have been united for a century and vast, nuclear-powered Zeppelins carry passengers between Paris, London and New York. When former journalist Victoria Valois starts investigating the murder of her ex-husband, she attracts a motley assortment of unlikely allies–including a surgically upgraded monkey who drinks, smokes and curses, and can even fly a plane! Collected together here for the first time in one volume, the award-winning Ack-Ack Macaque novels are a gripping examination of what it means to be truly human. And in Ack-Ack Macaque, they introduce us to one of literature’s most unpredictable and exciting heroes. Includes a brand new final chapter, ‘The Last Macaque.’
