About this listen

Discover the origins of the classic rivalry between Spike and Vicious amongst the dark underbelly of Mars, 2061, in this prequel novel to the upcoming Netflix series Cowboy Bebop.

The year is 2061. The Red Dragon Crime Syndicate is king, and for all those lucky enough to be members of this crime family, life is damn good.

Well, not for everyone.... For two entry-level gangsters in Tharsis City, Mars, life in the Syndicate isn’t quite all guns and glamour. That’s right. Long before they were mortal enemies, Spike Spiegel and Vicious were just two friends clawing their way up the crime ladder and trying to have a little fun while doing it.

But when an opportunity to pull a job for their boss arises, it’s make-or-break time. Literally. All they have to do is deliver a suitcase. How hard could it be?

You ready for some history tellin'...space cowboy?

Long time fan of Bepop. Loved the live action series and the animation series prior to that. Loved the back story about fearless and vicious. The whole thing was a little short and felt like half the back story. Wish there was more of these or the live action series.

Well done. Story is on the short side.

I’ve seen criticism about this and the reboots and I say to those-shhhhhh it’s amazingly good and you will get it later. Thank you to the authors and actors who have made this revisit to bebop possible. I wish there was more!!

Great visit to the pre world of bebop

A great story with lots of action. It kept me listening attentively to the story and action. I think people have been super hard on new Cowboy Bebop stuff coming out, but I've enjoyed it. This sheds some light onto how the characters came to be in a real human way while still showing some of the finer details of the universe.

An interesting take on the back story of Spike!

Be warned. the phrase "eyes ticked to" may become annoying to distraction. Gratuitous (and poorly written) sex by mortally wounded people just stuck in there is awkward and beyond ridiculousness.

It's a good story but

Great insight to the past of Vicious and his rise in the syndicate. I doubt we will see anymore with the Live Action being canceled. Shame becuase this was well read and left me wanting more.
