About this eBook

Survival Street is a unrepentant action satire tearing through a dystopia packed with economic and humanistic cautionary tales.

After an unbridled wave of corporations take over America, the country is left completely deregulated and effectively carved up into feudal states where billionaires and businesses make their own laws. Among the wreckage, mass privatization shuts down public broadcasting forcing all the beloved edu-tainers out on the down and dirty streets. One group of them stick together, determined to keep helping kids across the country and do it by becoming an A-Team-esque band of mercenaries fighting for (and educating!) kids in the crumbling, corporate war zone of New Best America.

A candy coating of pop culture madness, humor, cartoonishly absurd hyper-violence, and just enough hope to keep holding on. Collects Survival Street #1–#4.

Garbage. It bastardizes Sesame Street in an attempted parody of the "Trump America". The "bad guys" are American capitalists, the same capitalists that leftist douche bags like this writer unknowingly support, not because they are "innocently naive", but because they are blatantly stupid cowards that get told how to think and feel, a standard for every corporate shill. This fool calls fox news "fawkes news" because subtlety isn't in his purse, he can't let the reader figure it out on their own, probably because he projects his limited intelligence the unfortunate reader. This bundle of sticks writer is about as edgy as a wooden spoon, and he uses it to ladle bullshizz for the sake of political scumbags that do all the things his narrative's enemies do. Don't buy this trash, better to spend the money on a better read, like the nutrition facts on a cereal box or a greasy napkin. Never buying another thing from Google books. Today's letter is "S", because this "SUCKED".

I loved it... and if you were me, and I were you... I would use your body to read it and love it still. Wildly entertaining, but also oddly surreal and almost prophetic at times. What a gem.
