An original and unusual retelling of the Arthurian legend, set in London as you´ve never seen it before: a place with electricity for blood, lit by a thousand neon lights, by the acclaimed author of The Graces.
Power always wins.
Imagine Camelot but in Gotham: a city where Arthurian knights are the celebrities of the day, riding on motorbikes instead of horses and competing in televised fights for fame and money.
´Arthurian legend meets urban fantasy in a brilliant, bloody wild ride´ Jay Kristoff, Sunday Times bestselling author of Aurora Burning

The boldest, smartest, most adventurous fantasy I´ve read in ages´ Krystal Sutherland, author of Our Chemical Hearts

Imagine a city where electricity is money, power the only game worth playing, and violence the most fervently worshipped religion.
