About this listen

Discover the origins of the classic rivalry between Spike and Vicious amongst the dark underbelly of Mars, 2061, in this prequel novel to the upcoming Netflix series Cowboy Bebop.

The year is 2061. The Red Dragon Crime Syndicate is king, and for all those lucky enough to be members of this crime family, life is damn good.

Well, not for everyone.... For two entry-level gangsters in Tharsis City, Mars, life in the Syndicate isn’t quite all guns and glamour. That’s right. Long before they were mortal enemies, Spike Spiegel and Vicious were just two friends clawing their way up the crime ladder and trying to have a little fun while doing it.

But when an opportunity to pull a job for their boss arises, it’s make-or-break time. Literally. All they have to do is deliver a suitcase. How hard could it be?

You ready for some history tellin'...space cowboy?

I love the Anime of Cowboy Bebop. The Netflix series was something of a disaster, but I still found myself enjoying it. this is in-between the two. I was half expecting the story to be as cringe worthy as the Netflix series, but this turned out well enough for me to keep my eyes (and ears) open for another story.

A surpriseingly decent story.

If you havent watched anything to do with Cowboy Bebop before, think Goodfellas/Blade Runner/Fight Club meshed into one, with its own charm and wit. This particular story will be sure to surprise you.

I grew to appreciate the time and effort gone into fleshing two distinct personalities (Vicious and Fearless/Spike) in their own standalone backstory. I got a much better feel for these characters that provides more depth to their place in the original anime - and, for anyone that may be wondering, watching the Live Action isn't necessary to enjoy this listen.

All in all great story and character building with writing that translates very well in this format.
Highly Recommend

Fantastic easy listening for fans of and newcomers to the franchise
