About this ebook

The Metalheads – Heavy metal music, partying, drugs, alcohol and sex are the only things that matter to this subculture of teen misfits. When the hottest rocker chick in town, Trisha Williams, is thrown a 16th birthday bash at her father’s house, things take a turn for the worst. The notorious Westside Gangstas, a criminal gang feared for its ruthlessness, gatecrash the party. A brawl erupts and popular teenager Dayne Hetfield is caught having sex with a gang member’s girlfriend. This begins the cycle of tit for tat violence that turns the streets of urban Sydney into a battleground. Friendships become strained and relationships are broken as the beatings, bloodshed, bombings and murder take their toll on Dayne and his metalhead mates. Yet, neither side is willing to give in to the carnage, and the animosity rages on until only one side is left standing.


A note from the author: Violence is a major theme of the Hooligans storyline. While I take some events in the book to the extreme I tried to write the violence as realistic as possible and to show the consequences of it. As with each act of violence committed, there is a more heinous retaliation. To quote Martin Luther King, "The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy." Mental health is also a common subject throughout the story as the many of the flawed characters struggle with their personal issues as the violence takes a toll on their lives.
