Publisher's summary

Mega-City One, 2080. Judge Joe Dredd's first year on the streets as a full-eagle Judge. Bred for justice, trained in law, Dredd's no helpless rookie, but he's not the seasoned veteran we know either. Three tales follow the first adventures of the future city's greatest lawman. With an introduction by the Mighty Tharg!

"City Fathers": The brutal murder of a Justice Department-sanctioned spy uncovers something new and dangerous in the sector's murky black market. Unless Dredd can stop it, chaos will be unleashed.

"Cold Light of Day": A savage killing spree results in the deaths of two highly-regarded Judges, and many consider Dredd to be responsible: a decision he made five years earlier - while he was still a cadet - has come back to haunt him.

"Wear Iron": "Wear iron, that's the rule." Paul Strader is a stick-up man, and a stone cold professional. But when he gets in over his head, he has to risk everything on the word of a corrupt lawman and break every rule he has. Every rule but one....

Author bios: Michael Carroll, Al Ewing and Matthew Smith are three celebrated novelists and Dredd comics writers. Smith, also the editor of 2000 AD, has written two previous novels for Abaddon and Black Flame and the comics series Dredd Year One for IDW. Ewing is the author of The Fictional Man for Solaris and five novels for Abaddon. Carrol is the YA author of Quantum Prophecy and The New Heroes series.

The narrator is wonderful and the content is solid

I have severe difficulties with my eyesight and miss out on graphic novels including the awe-inspiring cyberpunk-themed world of Judge Dredd.

Jordan Harold as the narrator has performed an incredible service in delivering this omnibus. I am so appreciative of how well this narration expresses the nuances and tone through attention to detail in the voicing of different characters.

Thank you - I loved the book and you have earned a long-term fan.

Actually a really good story, great performance.

If you like the movies and the comics in the Dredd "universe" these books are quite entertaining. Voice acting is dark and spot on for Dredd. My only critique is that the stories are kind if short and it just kind of ends anticlimacticly.

Dredd Noir

This is fun stuff, hard-boiled and laced with snappy, witty narration. Dredd comes off like Philip Marlowe or Sam Spade, by way of really, really Dirty Harry.
When it's done right, the evil brother/righteous brother thing never gets old, and the reader carries the story along at a crisp pace that holds the listener's interest. Well done. Buy it.

The best prequel

I am a casual Dredd fan, and this is a perfect way to learn more of the lore of the mega city. It’s great for people who want a good sci-fi cop drama story, and with it broken up into 3 stories it’s easy to digest.
