From Diamond
Publisher: Asylum Press
The last time we saw Prissy Jones, aka Fearless Dawn, things were not going well for her. During a botched mission Fearless Dawn was helpless to watch her friend Betty takes a bullet in her skull and, while still grieving the loss, she woke to find that her Nazi arch nemesis Helga Von Krause has kidnapped her little canine companion, Dogface. Unfortunately for the Nazis, Fearless Dawn’s coping mechanism seems to be pumping Nazis full of as many bullets as possible!
While the tone of this title might be darker than other Fearless Dawn books we’ve been treated to recently, Steve Mannion’s artwork lightens the mood with quirky and fun character designs that make the book a pleasure to read. In what other series can you read about moonbase Nazis, super model secret agents, mad scientists, and genetically engineered zombie monsters?
Be sure to pick up Fearless Dawn: Hard Times from Asylum Press as our heroine takes on the whole Nazi army and won't stop until she puts them in the ground or she dies a hero.
