“Rock band Dystopia make it big! Finally a world tour! Lead singer in a shambles! Songwriter guitarist unappreciated! Other band members in a funk! Their manager, doing dirty deals in order to bring the band higher still. Their opening act DJ obsesses over prostitutes. Groupies! Alcohol! Email correspondence to make the book seem cool! And everyone doing drugs. And then there are the murders. And the people who get away with it.
True to their name, Dystopia rise fast and are on a quick downward spiral back down to the pits because of ego, hubris and a hedonism matching their appetites to make music.
So-so writing. Brainless read. Bad behavior, atrocious values. Not recommended for kids. But if you like backstabbers and junkies, then this one's for you.
