Cartoon City

For a classic urban sass novel cult hit Cartoon City by Ferdia Mac Anna is hard to beat with its wild cast of misfits rebels and Dublin denizens. Anti-hero Myles seeks an out from his journo work. When he falls for the redoubtable Mia however he is drawn into the heart of Dublins underworld with some alarming - and hilarious - consequences.
