An outcast, an outsider, an oddball. With too much ambition and not enough talent, Saffron Jack has never fitted in wherever hes been. Now, with the feeling that his time is running out, he needs to do something drastic to change his life. So what better idea than to run away to the nearest war zone, and within the bullets, destruction and fighting do the thing hes always wanted to do: start his own country and declare himself king... 'A bravura meditation on crown and country, borders, and what it means to belong.' - Niven Govinden
