Book Description

January 1995 The angel chronicles
The four books in Mick Norman's notorious Angel Chronicles: Angels from Hell, Angel Challenge, Guardian Angels and Angels on my Mind, are here presented in a single compendium edition, making available these classics of wild youth culture for the first time in twenty years. The Angel Chronicles present a vision of a nightmare near-future which is even more chillingly relevant now than when they first appeared.

England, turn of the millenium. Government repression has driven the Hell's Angels underground; yet they still exist. The final outlaws. From their hide-out in the mountains of Snowdonia, Gerry Vinson leads his chapter, the Lasst Heroes into battle. Apart from police and government manipulation, the Angels must contend with The Ghouls - a satin-jacketed yet sadistic rival chapter - as well as unscrupulous rock promoters who need them as cannon fodder against the emerging breed of razor-wielding teen rock fans and, above all, the deadly new threat from gangs of strutting, scented, ultra-violent mod-skinhead hybrids: the skulls.

The result is a brutal, mythopoeic odyssey of sex, drugs, madness, betrayal and violent death; the outsider aesthetic taken to its logical extremes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Biker tales of hedonism and prophecy. . . Dec 13 1998
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
Having picked this compilation up on a whim whilst on holiday in New York, I have to confess that my expectations were minimal. However, what a novel surprise. A collection of witty, prophetic biker stories, written with flare and an almost frighteningly accurate eye for the future political climate. Apparently these books were first written in the 70's, however they foreshadow the rise of Reganism, Draconian measures undertaken against youth culture in Britain during the 80's, even 'Queer Politics'. They are a riveting read, a reet good laff, and some other 'r' word alliteration I'm sure. (Rollicking?). Read them.

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting take on the notorious motorclyce club Sep 2 2011
By L. V. Sage - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback
I read this compilation several years ago. It was surprisingly entertaining, taking the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club into futuristic Britain. Written in the early 1970's, "the future" is not defined, but it's not too much different from the 1980's or 1990's. These four books are like a cross between bikers & A Clockwork Orange.
