    Conquest: The First Horseman
    Pop Culture Goes to War
    • Pop Culture Goes to War, by Geoff Martin and Erin Steuter, explores the persistence of and opposition to militarism in American life. It provides a comprehensive overview of the role of toys, video games, music, television and movies in supporting contemporary militarism. Resistance to militarism is highlighted through the traditional mediums of music and movies, and increasingly through the arts, 'culture jamming, ' and the satire of The Daily Show, The Onion, The Simpsons, The Colbert Report, and South Park

      Pop Culture Goes to War
    • Can a woman in a wheelchair present a terrorist threat? Can a tramp be any kind of answer to it? Child of the Gulf War and a marriage gone sour, Peter Cahill thinks he has kicked the dust of Desert Storm from his heels when at last his family and friends escape to the UK and he grows up to find success as a financier in the City. Yet tragedy strikes with the death of his one true love even as a sinister figure from the past, in thrall to revenge, proves to be the parent who rejected him... Balancing action with insight, Geoff Martin has written a counter-terrorist thriller that follows the fingers of international terrorism from the intelligence world of the Middle East to the heart of London. By weaving a family feud into a clash of civilisations, Conquest: The First Horseman brings the threat of WMDs home: in somebody's suitcase.
