| Description: |
London is living through one of its darkest times - a comet has just missed the Earth, leaving the city in chaos and the people fearing an apocalypse. Tersias, a blind boy oracle, has predicted the comet and sees visions of the future through the darkness. As Tersias'' powers strengthen, people who seek to use them are drawn from the shadows. |
| Synopsis: |
This title introduces the eagerly anticipated third novel from G P Taylor. His second novel, "Wormwood", and his first, "Shadowmancer", hailed by the "Times" as the "biggest event in children's fiction since "Harry Potter"", were instant bestsellers. London is living through one of its darkest times - a comet has just missed the Earth, leaving the city in chaos and the people fearing an apocalypse. Tersias, a blind boy oracle, has predicted the comet and sees visions of the future through the darkness. As Tersias' powers strengthen, people who seek to use them are drawn from the shadows; Malachi, a charlatan magician, Jonah, a desperate highwayman and Lord Malpas, a keeper of mysterious powers. But none of them are aware of a much darker force that torments Tersias' soul...This is a gripping tale of intrigue and sorcery set in a richly atmospheric London. |
