Imagine a city where electricity is money, power the only game worth playing, and violence the most fervently worshipped religion. In this dark, chaotic, alluring place, any dream can come true if you want it hard enough - and if you are prepared to do some very, very bad things to get it ...

Über den Autor
Laure Eve is the author of critically acclaimed fantasy duologies The Graces and The Curses, and Fearsome Dreamer and The Illusionists. A British-French hybrid, she was born in Paris and grew up in Cornwall, a land suffused with myth and legend. She speaks English and French, and can hold a vague conversation, usually about food, in Greek. She is very English about comedy and very French about cheese. Selling comic books in foreign languages, loosing a variety of blood-curdling screams into a recording booth and striking odd poses as an artist's model are just some of the things she has done for a living.
