Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Lord Alistair's Rebellion
Night clad the imperial city in a black robe stitched with fire.
The misty river rolled in from the sea through its illuminated bridges with the subdued swish of some great snake writhing its way through hoops of gold.
Out in the fog-haunted region between the bridges the movement of the red and green-eyed steam-tugs, clutching invisible barges and dragging them away into the darkness, seemed like a shadow-show in which grotesque demons were hunting the souls of men.
