    "description": "<p>Ax Preston, former dictator, returns to England to take up the Green President Job, but he finds some outrageous details in the contract, so the Triumvirate decamps for Paris, to sit out the first hard winter after the A-team destroyed crude oil in ostentatious poverty. Ax is quite certain he can negotiate a better deal. But while Ax and Sage and Fiorinda are embarrassing the English government over conditions in the new slave-labour camps, bad things are happening to their friend Fred Eiffrich, President of the USA. His enemies in Washington are about to drop a bombshell, for what happened at Lavoissier is not over. It's never going to end - not while Fiorinda or her child live... The Bold As Love sequence is fantasy of the order of Neill Gaiman and Clive Barker, or Grant Morrison and Jamoe Delano, in an England that could so nearly be ours. 'Fiorinda is a passionately loveable heroine' Amazon.co.uk 'Jones melds modern and ancient: computer technology meets dark age religion. Sitting somewhere on the borders of dark fanatasy, literary fiction and SF' Guardian</p>",
