5000 Dead Ducks: Lust and Revolution in the Oilsands

Set in the near future, this savage satire is about how a group of unscrupulous lawyers seize the Alberia Government and scheme a disastrous takeover of the Oilsands. To bankroll their enterprise, they have no problem gaining the financial backing and the muscle of seriously rich oil barons – all of whom have egregious motivations including, of course, Money and Power. The book kicks off with the discovery by environmentalists of 5000 Dead Ducks in PetroFubar Energy’s tailing ponds. In the course of ducking the international public outcry that ensues, cold-blooded executives, evil separatists, lesbian and other lovers, FarEastern and Montexian entrepreneurs and a megalomaniacal criminal lawyer scheme, screw, and march to the hypnotic rhythms of fascism.
