Predator: Race War

From the Arctic Circle to the equatorial jungles—from the most isolated wilderness to the overpopulated city—any place can be a hunting ground. It all depends on your choice of game. For the Predator, the game is man, so he heads to the grounds with the biggest trophies—the Paloverde State Penitentiary. They say that when you kill a killer, all his kills belong to you, and Predator’s looking to rack up the big numbers. Crime/suspense novelist Andrew Vachss has earned a reputation for writing tough stories with his hard-hitting Burke series of novels. Now he takes his familiar setting of criminals, bigots, and opportunists and drops a Predator into the mix. The result is a Molotov cocktail called Predator: Race War.

How you look at it doesn’t matter to us. Citizens think a trial verdict depends on the evidence; we know all that counts is who’s on the jury. Some of you get to visit our world, but none of you really see it. Some of you try too hard, stick your nose in too deep. Then you don’t get to leave.
