'Land Of The Headless' is set in a far future where mankind has taken his religious dogma and the divisions that result from it out into space. On a planet where society is shaped by a strict adherence to the word of God as laid out in the Old Testament and Quran, a poet is accused of the rape of a woman. Found guilty, he must face the punishment laid down in the Good Book: beheading. Beheaded, he is fitted with a neck valve, ordinator and basic sensory equipment and sent out into the world. But he bears a terrible and very visible stigma - the only way he can make a living is to join the army and serve in the war against the neighbouring planet...and plan his revenge against the man he believes is really guilty. 'Land Of The Headless' is a searing satire of religious fundamentalism, a novel of love and war and a study of self-delusion.
