In V for Vendetta, readers will view a vaudevillian veteran whom Fate casts vicariously as the victim and villain. The vanguard of valor, vicious in his vision of vigilance against the violators of volition, his vexing visitation as a visionary of values to vanquish the vile, virulent vermin is a vivid novel of great vehemence and vigour. Summary of the Book In a dystopian near-future, United Kingdom is controlled by fascists who run concentration camps to eliminate their enemies. The world is left wasted by nuclear war, what the nukes did not touch was stricken down by floods and crop failures. Out of the anarchy rises a man donning a Guy Fawkes mask to challenge the ruling party through theatrical acts of vandalism and violence. V, as he calls himself, is a questionable man, his mission is violent but inspiring as he tries to bring down the government and make the people see sense in governing themselves. This collector's edition comes with an official Guy Fawkes mask. About Alan Moore Alan Moore is an English comic book writer.
