Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Ignition City Volume 1 by Warren Ellis Dy's Take. I’ve decided, after reading a couple of his books today, that I like Warren Ellis’ stuff. It’s dark, and grim, but it’s also smart and thought- provoking. ‘Scuse me while I go search the library database for more of his work… This was an intro into a new world, same as No Hero , though not the same world. This was more steam-punk meets UFOs with a dash of Firefly . A good book and while crude, in some places — these are graphic novels, emphasis on the first word, NOT Archie comics — the gross factor was far lower than in the other 2 GNs I read today.

It is 1956 and the Earth is tired from wars and patrols in space and is closing all launching sites and is trying to isolate itself from the world. And in the middle of all this, one of the last pilots, Mary, receives the news that her father had died. This is how Warren Ellis opens its narrative and it is obvious from the very first page that we have a lot of catching up to do -- because this Earth has nothing to do with ours. And this catching up takes the form of a letter, numerous conversations and occasionally some guess work before the reality is confirmed. Mary starts for Ignition City just to claim her father's body and anything he had left behind. But it soon become clear that he had been killed and that the city is very different from any other - to start with, it is artificially built and is becoming the only place that still allows ships to leave Earth. And it becomes clear very fast that things are not as they look - the citizens are at least as weird as the city.
