A Tale of Revolution, Betrayal, and Redemption in the Age of Enlightenment

Hooligan

by R.A. Chesney

In 1776, England is a land of misery and oppression where the poor are exploited, the law is cruel and the colonies are in revolt.

Amidst this turmoil, a violent and desperate vagabond named Lliam Shaun Hooligan is coerced by a secret society of abolitionists to destroy a shipyard that holds a key prisoner: Benjamin Franklin, the American envoy to France. Meanwhile, Lord Michael Astor, a ruthless slaver and aristocrat, indulges in his sadistic pleasures and schemes to sell hundreds of English villagers into sexual bondage in Jamaica. But Hooligan’s mission will set in motion a series of events that will change the fate of nations and peoples. From the Scottish Highlands to the Ivory Coast, from Paris to Philadelphia, Hooligan will face danger, betrayal, and redemption as he fights for freedom and justice in a world on the brink of revolution. This is Hooligan, a novel that blends deep political intrigue, historical accuracy and man’s most base instincts.

Seeing Hooligan approach, the insane foul-mouthed ancient who owned the stall informed the crowds that, such a man as he would likely have a cock to rival a horse.

Excerpt from HOOLIGAN

He glimpsed the child below as he fell, still on the surface but face down, his fan of black hair the pistil of a huge scarlet poppy of undulating water. 'Mother of Chroist! The water! It was red!'

Excerpt from HOOLIGAN

When Macbeth's wife opened the door and stood before him, an angel of loveliness with flour up to her elbows, he knew for a certainty that he had found his love and lost her, all in an instant.

Excerpt from HOOLIGAN

He squeezed down through the narrow space vomiting copiously on those below; barely sinking his feet in the excrement before the trapdoor above him was slammed shut and bolted.

Excerpt from HOOLIGAN

'She rutted with a maddening need, swam into paradise in a torrent of her own manufacture, and glory of glories was not acquainted with the word, 'no.''

Excerpt from HOOLIGAN

“A Hermann Melville scale epic on steroids.
Simply a must read.”

“Brilliant very unusual what a change to have a historical book that's so totally different from all the rest with maybe flashman being the closest. Many stories interwoven full on funny and serious and brilliant.”
