Dark Meat City has been gutted after the Blitzkrieg of the Machos, entities spawned from the darkest matter of the Universe. Humanity has no other choice than to unite its forces and try to resist, since counter-attacking is impossible. The unified gang of Dark Meat City, aka “The Big One”, organizes its troops and fraternizes with the army, in a last-ditch survival effort to survive. But even as the situation appears hopeless, and Angelino’s old demons catch up with him, the first snowflakes begin to fall on the city...

In Red, the personality, career, and world of one of America's best writers and most honored sports journalists are brought warmly to life. From Red Smith?s first story for the Milwaukee Sentinel in 1927 to his last column for the New York Times five days before his death in 1982, his inimitable style graced the country?s sports pages for over half a century. Even in his earliest column, his writing showed evidence of the wit, clarity, and eloquence that would become his hallmarks. In 1976 he received the Pulitzer Prize for Distinguished Criticism. ø The people who appear throughout Red comprise a distinguished twentieth-century hall of fame: Joe DiMaggio, Babe Ruth, Ted Williams, Joe Louis, Ernest Hemingway, Grantland Rice, Ring Lardner, and Damon Runyon. A biography of one of this country?s finest writers, Red is also American history of a rich and lasting sort.
