About this edition

The world’s greatest secret agent has six months to live…now it’s time to go after the REAL bastards. Regarded as Millar’s masterpiece, King of Spies left jaws on the floor as he and artist Matteo Scalera took the classic tropes of the spy genre and subverted everything as Britain’s greatest secret agent, now in his sixties, discovers he has six months to live. He has a choice between gentle decline or going after everyone he thinks deserves to die. His worldview has changed since he retired from the service and as he looks around at the mess the world’s in, he has a long list of people he blames. Politicians, royalty, journalists and celebrities, Sir Roland King wants to root out as much of the corrupt status quo as he can before he goes, and a lifetime of experience makes him almost impossible to catch. Who is the one man who might be able to take him down? His estranged son, eager to destroy him after Roland abandoned both he and his mother many years ago. This book is for fans of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, Kingsman, Unforgiven and Kill Bill. It’s an elegant revenge thriller you won’t be able to put down. For mature audiences. Collects King of Spies #1–#4.
