Aprašymas

An electrifying dark academic fantasy set in an alternate Britain, from an exciting new voice in fantasy.

Oxford, 1830.
London is a smouldering ruin.
Tension is rising between humans and fae.
And a red star burns overhead.

War has left the British empire broken and bleeding. The Industrial Revolution has driven the fae courts into the light. Oxford, now the capital, is a city on the brink, haunted by whispers of apocalypse.

Aria came to study magick under the brilliant Professor Ashcroft. But her hunger for knowledge is dangerous, and her power even more so. When attacks erupt across the city, Aria and Ashcroft are pulled into a conspiracy that could shatter the fragile peace between human and fae, and unleash a dark magick which could bring the country to its knees.

Aria's powers may be the kingdom's last hope... or its ruin.

The first in a dark, atmospheric trilogy for fans of Babel, Blood Over Bright Haven and Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell.
