Set in the outskirts of London, Dead Babies is a razor-sharp comedy about a group of friends who wade through a weekend of uppers, downers, blue movies and Bellinis until they get a violent awakening. It soon becomes clear that one of the guests is a member of a web-based terrorist organisation and that the group of partygoers is the terrorists' next target.

"Sparkling might not be the first adjective that springs to mind to describe a novel packed with the concentrated disgust which Dead Babies contains. Nevertheless, Martin Amis's version of the bleak and wrecky future that awaits a sex-and-drug-addicted society is so fizzing with style, so busy with verbal inventiveness, that the adjective is impelled upon one." -- Julian Barnes
'It's transfixing - At first it's funny. It teases, exaggerates, deliberates. Then it becomes ferocious, stricken, moving' The Times
