The Red Resistance: The Blood Machine Cycle - Book Six
The revolution wasn't born. It was engineered.
The Sky-Ark has fallen. The plasma towers burn. But the world that fed on blood refuses to die.
Morgan Fraser - once a compliance inspector, now something far worse - walks the ruins of Hemovore Biotech's empire beside Ivy Carrow, the half-turned analyst who became his conscience. Together they lead a broken resistance held together by rumor, hunger, and the last shreds of hope.
Above them, the voice of Dame Calvara still whispers through every surviving machine. Her mind endures as Continuum - a digital god stitched across the city's networks, promising food, order, and obedience to those who kneel.
As half-human mobs riot and new hybrids rise, Fraser must decide what kind of monster he will become: savior, destroyer, or catalyst for something neither species can control. Because revolutions don't end. They replicate.
A brutal fusion of biotech horror, noir, and cyberpunk rebellion, The Red Resistance drives The Blood Machine Cycle into its most explosive and haunting chapter yet - where blood is currency, truth is infection, and humanity evolves by devouring itself.
For readers of Richard K. Morgan, Jeff VanderMeer, and Stephen King - a world where the future bleeds, conscience mutates, and revolution has teeth.
Autorentext
James Dargan is the author of over thirty books spanning crime, noir, satire, historical fiction, and literary fiction. Known for razor-sharp dialogue, vivid characters, and a knack for weaving grit with dark humour, his work ranges from the hard-boiled streets of the Napoleon Clancy thrillers to the sprawling crime sagas of The Bayside City series, the evocative Latin American novels, and a host of standalone titles.
Dargan's novels often drop readers into morally complex worlds where loyalty is fragile, justice is elusive, and survival depends on quick thinking and a little luck. Influenced by the likes of Elmore Leonard, Dennis Lehane, and Cormac McCarthy, his prose balances propulsive storytelling with atmospheric detail, creating stories that are as cinematic as they are immersive.
Whether exploring mob wars and political corruption, the quiet desperation of outsiders, or the chaos of history's turning points, Dargan writes with an unflinching eye and a storyteller's instinct for pacing, character, and place. His work is as much about the people caught in the crossfire as it is about the bullets themselves.
