About this listen
Mega-City One, 2080. Judge Joe Dredd's first year on the streets as a full-eagle Judge. Bred for justice, trained in law, Dredd's no helpless rookie, but he's not the seasoned veteran we know either. Three tales follow the first adventures of the future city's greatest lawman. With an introduction by the Mighty Tharg!
"City Fathers": The brutal murder of a Justice Department-sanctioned spy uncovers something new and dangerous in the sector's murky black market. Unless Dredd can stop it, chaos will be unleashed.
"Cold Light of Day": A savage killing spree results in the deaths of two highly-regarded Judges, and many consider Dredd to be responsible: a decision he made five years earlier - while he was still a cadet - has come back to haunt him.
"Wear Iron": "Wear iron, that's the rule." Paul Strader is a stick-up man, and a stone cold professional. But when he gets in over his head, he has to risk everything on the word of a corrupt lawman and break every rule he has. Every rule but one....
Author bios: Michael Carroll, Al Ewing and Matthew Smith are three celebrated novelists and Dredd comics writers. Smith, also the editor of 2000 AD, has written two previous novels for Abaddon and Black Flame and the comics series Dredd Year One for IDW. Ewing is the author of The Fictional Man for Solaris and five novels for Abaddon. Carrol is the YA author of Quantum Prophecy and The New Heroes series.

Great memories of a childhood read!!!
What a great way to revive those 1980's comic book hero's we all moved. I remember Dredd & Rico slugging it out within the pages of Tharg's 2000 AD edition. A well read story which helped immerse the listener within the world of Megacity One.
Well worth it!

Need more of these
Great production. I am curious as to why it goes from Year one and then jumps to Year three. Where is Year two?
I am looking forward to more of these as audio-books. There is so much source material that can be adapted. Carroll is doing a great job, both in terms of writing and editing them together.

Classic Dredd
I really enjoyed this.
I was initially sceptical that this would be any good but I soon changed my mind.
The narrator gives a great voice to Dredd, between Urban and Eastwood.
The 3 stories are well written with some classic touches like block names.
I highly recommend this.

Exactly what I expected and hoped it would be.
If you remember the comics, this lives up to them very well. Same "feel" as the decent movie "Dredd" and not the terrible Stallone effort.
Dark - Moody - Full of cliche - and BRILLIANT

Really good stuff
I'm a big fan of the universe anyway, so I am biased - but this is a genuinely good collection of stories and I enjoyed the performance.
The characters are all very fleshed out and the occasional change of perspective keeps it all fresh.
You need to come into it with some knowledge of Dredd and the universe, but it's all elaborated and expanded on in a way that isn't overwhelming or lacking in detail.
I like that these are small stories and not the high stakes, end-of-the-world tales that are pushed constantly these days.
The stories themselves are very well composed. We see the newly qualified Dredd(s) face against the every day crimes and criminals, while also providing us with backstory for the brothers, the Judges, the Law and the culture and populus of Megacity One (and a look into the Cursed Earth).
If you have any interest in the character at all, I highly recommend this book. If you enjoy a Dystopian setting, this is perfect (especially as it is told through the eyes of those in charge)
The narrator is great. Distinguishes well between the characters (and handles the voicing of the brothers very well)
Just great stuff.

Back to the 80’s
I love the way the characters and plot is deeper than you might expect for a genre of this type with dark humour and morals integral to the storyline

Good if you like Judge Dredd
I am not to familiar with Judge Dredd but know the basics so enjoyed it. With the second book being my favourite. If you are not familiar with Judge Dredd at all you may be confused at points.
