Banquet of the Beasts: An Eco-Thriller

Set on Scotland's West Coast, "Banquet of the Beasts" is an eco-thriller that delves into the nature of power and the power of nature. The story unfolds against the backdrop of a covert animal research laboratory that is deliberately burnt down, leaving only four survivors: Marek Dogovsky, a brave badger who knows no fear; Logan, a poetic fox; Raven, a starling with the ability to hear voices; and Walinska, a cunning weasel.

On the same day as Margaret Thatcher's funeral, a mysterious individual named Lynton Chilcoat launches a national chain of "Nobler Age" Foodbanks. This plan, which is as grotesque as it is ambitious, aims to provide food and support to the elderly population. However, it soon becomes clear that Chilcoat has ulterior motives, and he is willing to go to any lengths to achieve his goals.

As the four survivors navigate the aftermath of the fire and the introduction of the Foodbanks, they come face to face with the dark forces that are behind Chilcoat's scheme. They must use their unique abilities and skills to stop him and protect the vulnerable members of society who are being targeted by his insidious plan.

"Banquet of the Beasts" is a thrilling and thought-provoking story that explores the intersection of power, nature, and human resilience. It is a testament to the power of imagination and the ability of ordinary individuals to rise up against seemingly insurmountable odds. With its darkly funny tone and compelling characters, this eco-thriller is sure to captivate readers of all ages.
