Hulse expertly delivers us a future filled with horror, but also humanity and heart, in this unique and absorbing novel - Dan Howarth, author of Last Night of Freedom and Drone.

When he has you precisely where he wants you - he lifts the veil on shades of wider, deeper truths. Like all good science fiction, this is a book of layers, a tale within a tale, and theres a hard-driving pulse beneath the words. - Coy Hall, author of The Owl Men of Shanidar.

In the near future, a lonely production line worker risks it all to steal the necessary components to build a robot companion. Not only will it save his life, but his new friend will tell him a story he will never forget.

Porter is the sheriff of three neglected housing estates. When an elderly woman is senselessly killed, the community demands action. The sheriffs hands are tied by governmental red tape, but he finds his conscience pushing him towards the kind of violence he swore he'd left behind.

Albert bears a generational curse, Forced to carry out executions on behalf of the Halls of the Lands, his plan to escape his life as a pariah are thrown into disarray when a familiar name appears on his latest kill list.

From the author of Below Economic Thresholds and The Growth, comes this brutal and haunting dystopian thriller set in the broken remains of a future Britain. Bleak yet sharply observed, Land of the Downtrodden blends dystopian science fiction with working class grit, and deeply personal stakes. Perfect for fans of The Road and Children of Men.

In Land of the Downtrodden, Hulse's sharpened, deft prose paints a clearer-than-ever picture of the stak, dystopian future mankind is sleepwalking into. - Kev Harrison, author of Shadow of the Hidden

Few authors can blend sci-fi and horror as organically as Hulse. A brutal and bloody glimpse into our own potential future, one that weaves together the story of a grizzled and broken lawman, and a struggling factory drone in unexpected ways. - Elford Alley, author of Never Leaving and Wildcat Thicket
