Words from Proxy by Alex London, PubCrawl's Book of the Month. Photograph of city and boy used via Creative Commons.

Inspired by The Whipping Boy and Feed, Proxy tells the tale of Knox and Syd, two boys living in drastically opposite social classes. Knox is a Patron, born into an extremely wealthy family. The world is at his fingers, and when he gets into trouble, a Proxy takes all his punishments. That Proxy is Syd. When the two are unexpectedly forced to team up, they learn that some debts cannot be repaid.

The above quote makes us PubCrawlers never want to set foot at Sterling Work Colony. What fictional place (i.e. Azkaban, Mordor, etc) would be your worst nightmare?
