Description
‘Compelling, suspenseful, and altogether extraordinary’ LEE CHILD
'On the cusp of sleep, have we not all heard a voice call out our name?'
Taste
the Dust
the Blood
the Sweat
....and Fear.
It's time to #HearTheVoices
Defender by G X Todd is an imaginative thriller that draws on influences from Stephen King, Clive Barker and Neil Gaiman to create a new world - where the biggest threat mankind faces is from the voices inside your own head. If you loved The Stand, you'll love Defender, the first in a four part series.
In a world where long drinks are in short supply, a stranger listens to the voice in his head telling him to buy a lemonade from the girl sitting on a dusty road.
The moment locks them together.
Here and now it's dangerous to listen to your inner voice. Those who do, keep it quiet.
These voices have purpose.
And when Pilgrim meets Lacey, there is a reason. He just doesn't know it yet.
Defender pulls you on a wild ride to a place where the voices in your head will save or slaughter you.

A Note From the Publisher
Advance Praise
'So accomplished that it's difficult to believe it's a first novel, Defender is already worthy to take its place alongside The Stand in the canon. An absolute gem of a book.’
John Connolly
‘Defender is insane, intelligent, beautifully plotted, intensely absorbing and will enfold you in a vice-like grip from the first page until the last sentence’
Lizlovesbooks.com
'A chilling vision of a world gone feral, yet strangely triumphant. You can taste the dust and blood and sweat; the fear on every page. Readers should approach with caution, those voices will burrow into your head and heart'
Karen Maitland
‘It’s not often you read a debut this assured, this confident. Defender is simply majestic.’
Adam Christopher, author of Made to Kill
