Aside from staying in power I was slightly confused as to what their motivations were. It has jackbooted troopers, concentration camps, evil torturing doctors, and a “secret weapon”. The Ruling regime is pretty “by-the-numbers” when it comes to villains. They start an underground newsletter to sway public opinion against the Howard Government, right under its nose in London. As the character’s experience the tyranny of the government via cruelty, labor camps and torture, they are radicalized into resistance, not with the sword but with the pen. As the story progresses, the main characters learn about the Regime’s true plans through a teenage scholar-revolutionary, Oscar Saracen.
