Howie the Rookie

by Mark O'Rowe

Howie begins the story. The Rookie concludes it.
Mark O'Rowe's Howie the Rookie is an epic tale. A wild, urban odyssey through a nightmarish landscape, hilarious, grotesque, and, finally, deeply moving and touching. Featuring a kaleidoscopic array of characters, including Ladyboy, a psychotic thug on a quest to avenge the deaths of his Siamese fighting fish. Malodorous adrenaline junkies Flann Dingle and Ginger Boy, Avalanche, a ski-panted monster looking for love, the tragic Mouse, the scabies-afflicted Peaches. And the Howie. And the Rookie.
