Red Side Story

February 6th 2024, totally and absolutely without fail. Even if I were to be struck by lightning tomorrow, run over, kidnapped by aliens and then thrown into a black hole, you would still get it. Promise.

So what is it all about? Well, I opted for the 'direct sequel' approach, so the action simply carries on a couple of weeks where Shades of Grey ended. Eddie is about to married off as little more than breeding stock to the repulsive Violet deMauve, and Jane is now a Brunswick, and has been promoted to retail: working in East Carmine's Inspirational Living shop. Courtland Gamboge's death has not been forgotten, and Yellow prefect Sally Gamboge with the help of Yellow-Prefect-in-Waiting Bunty McMustard are keen to have Eddie and Jane consigned to the Green Room as punishment. Needless to say, Jane and Eddie are not keen for this to happen - after all, there is the entire social apparatus of Chromatacia to be brought down..

Along the way we discover more about the world they live in, the secret behind the Fallen Man, what Eddie's Mum was doing at Jollity Fair, and all manner of questions that they - and you - may have about the world.
