Dead Set Legend Too: The Lie That Broke the World

By Stuart James Orr

The world didn't end in 2000.
It panicked instead.
And that was all Danny Dollars' fault.

Dead Set Legend Too - The Lie That Broke the World is a high-velocity rock 'n' roll crime comedy set against the final, unhinged countdown to the year 2000 - when the world was convinced civilisation might collapse at midnight.

At the centre of the chaos is Danny Dollars: loud, criminally confident, and smart enough to be dangerous - but not smart enough to stop talking.

When a lie meant to save his own skin spirals into full-scale Y2K hysteria, Danny and The Big Stu Easy find themselves riding a wave of global panic they no longer control. Governments scramble. Systems buckle. Everyone freaks out.

And the Oxymoronz?
They profit, panic, argue, escalate - and make everything worse.

This book delivers:

* A relentless countdown to midnight

* Global hysteria triggered by pure ego

* Rock bands, criminals, motorbikes, and bad ideas

* Blunt, unapologetic Australian humour

* Satire that punches power, panic, and masculinity equally hard

Danny Dollars never meant to hijack history.
He just lied too well - and refused to back down.

If you like:

* Crime comedies with real momentum

* Satire rooted in ego, money, and chaos

* Anti-heroes who escalate instead of learning

* Stories where stupidity has consequences

Then this is your book.

Loosely inspired by true events.
Heavily distorted by confidence.
The lie was small.
The fallout was global.
