Raveheart

‘An absolute riot of a read' THE SCOTSMAN ‘A gleeful state-of-the-nation dystopia' DAILY MAIL

A high NRG, whip-smart look at the state of modern Britain through the eyes of a disparate band of rave rebels, from the author of the acclaimed, bestselling debut The Young Team and one of Granta’s Best of Young British Novelists.

William Patterson – better known as DJ Turbo – is living a dystopian nightmare after his glory days as resident spinner at a local Coatbridge ice rink, The Time Capsule, have been snatched from him. As an ultranationalist regime sweeps to power, ‘The New Greatest Britishest Party’ cracks down on youth culture, drugs and – the final straw – electronica. Incensed by a blanket ban of their beloved tunes, Turbo and his comrades launch a rave revolt – resurrecting the illegal warehouse parties of the past in this new darker, monolithic Greatest Britain, as a powerful act of resistance.

But, as the political situation escalates and secret police surveil every corner of society, Turbo and his troops fly ever closer to the sun in the dangerous world of the anti-rave abolition paramilitary. Mixing euphoric anthems, psychotropic chemicals and peaceful insurrection, they will fight the war of the rave. Deciding who to trust – and who may betray the cause – is everything. The future of the whole nation is on the line … can Turbo be the hero not just of rave, but of Scotland?

Hilarious, tragic and incredibly clever all at once, this narcotic trip of a novel is a meta, mayhem-filled, cultural coup d'état and cult classic in the making, from one of the most electrifying young writers in Britain today.
