Bloodmud hot-rods the classic Mahabharata myth, turbocharges its dirty engine, and thunders into battle across the not-quite-America of the near future. This is Geiger versus Fripp for eternal rule of the city of Loadville. Fighting out of the hero corner, the five Geiger brothers: Edmond, born wearing a blue blazer and trying to live up to its status. Pepe, a flamenco singer who brawls even better than he dances. Ozo and Roy, twins skilled at modern art and grass cutting. And deadliest of all, Tatt, a globetrotting saboteur armed with Walmart's best bow and arrow. Opposite, their cousins: A mob of centuplets led by Maddox Fripp, an insufferable greedzilla whose tiny fists have never punched above the belt. When the cousins' family tree splinters, the feud ruptures into war: A war of surgeons and slicers, hustlers and pizzaguys, tycoons and goons. A war to decide who rules Loadville and who sinks beneath the bloodmud...
