5000 Dead Ducks
5000 DEAD DUCKS
A Novel About Lust and Revolution in the Oilsands
“5000 Dead Ducks is a masterfully crafted satire weaving together two of the hottest topics in Alberta (or Alberia) today: provincial politics and the oilsands.” Daryl Slade, Calgary Herald
“5000 Dead Ducks may be a satire, a fever dream of sorts, but its message is clear: When it comes to the oilsands, the stakes are so high that anything is possible.” Gillian Steward, Toronto Star
Christopher D. Evans QC, author of the best-seller A Painful Duty: 40 Years at the Criminal Bar, and Lorene M. Shyba PhD, innovator of Spies in the Oilsands, are proud to present their new novel, 5000 Dead Ducks: Lust and Revolution in the Oilsands.

A Painful Duty
In October 2010, my book A Painful Duty: 40 Years at the Criminal Bar was launched at gala dinners in Edmonton and Calgary, Alberta, sponsored by The Legal Archives Society of Alberta. Check out pics from the event under the “Events” tab and the synopsis under the “Memoirs” tab.
To order the book, follow instructions on the sidebar. The book is also available through the Legal Archives Society of Alberta and at Pages and The Owl’s Nest bookstores in Calgary, Alberta.
Yours truly,
C.D. Evans
