I just didn't really gel with this book.

Set in a dystopian future, London is walled off from the rest of the country and is under the control of two rival ganglords. The area around London is left to a race called 'Halfmen'. These are a mixture of humans, animals and machines mashed into one. They don't get on with humans.

One of the ganglords tries to form a peace treaty to the other by wedding off his daughter to him. But then the Gods get involved and betrayal becomes the norm.

This all sounds pretty interesting but it's not. I had to keep forcing myself to read. The only two characters I liked were Cherry & Melanie and they were both killed which was depressing. I didn't care about any of the others and didn't really care which one won. Not a winner for me.
