The Extreme Sports Network is the cash cow feeding off America’s lust for blood, guts and sex disguised as competitive athletics. From Extreme Nude Luge to the excruciatingly gory Extreme Outback Crocodile Habitat Marathon – it’s ESN’s life-or-death thrill ride to high ratings. But why do Americans always win and Europeans. . . die?
The answer, Remo suspects, lies in Battle Creek, Michigan, where the creator of Extreme Nuggets breakfast cereal is putting a new spin on marketing. Unfortunately for CURE, Remo is busy peddling his skills in Hollywood as star of a new reality show, sending Harold Smith into a panic. Chiun’s taking matters into his own hands, which is no comfort to Smith, because he’s now convinced that CURE has plunged into an extreme out-of-control spiral.
Breathlessly action-packed and boasting a winning combination of thrills, humour and mysticism, the Destroyer is one of the bestselling series of all time.
