End of the World Blues: A Novel
- Used Book in Good Condition
From Jon Courtenay Grimwood, author of the celebrated Arabesk series, comes a stunningly inventive novel of futuristic noir set in a world of shifting realities. Here a man is drawn into a gritty postmodern subculture and a secret kingdom of otherworldly beings to find what he lost long ago: a reason to live.

Kit Nouveau figured heâ€™d already come to the end of the world. An Iraqi war veteran, expatriate, and part owner of Pirate Maryâ€™s, the best Irish bar in Tokyo, Kit had settled down to await the inevitable with barely a whimper. It wasnâ€™t exactly how Kit thought heâ€™d end up, and he was right.

Itâ€™s going to end up a lot worse.

A teenage runaway with fifteen million dollars in stolen cash and a taste for cosplay is about to save Kitâ€™s life in a lethal swirl of scarlet and bridal lace. Lady Neku, a.k.a. Countess of High Strange, has her own dangerous destiny to fulfill and itâ€™s mysteriously connected to Kitâ€™s ravaged past. Now Kitâ€™s only hope for redemption is to save an ex-girlfriend he tragically failed once before. But everyone says itâ€™s already too late. And sheâ€™s left behind only one ominous clue: her suicide note.
