Ben Garston has broken the Lore. Now it´s time to face the music.
Life isn´t treating Red Ben well. He´s lost everything he held dear, including the love of his life. Still, at least he escaped the clutches of a malevolent spirit bent on total destruction. So there is that.
Now Ben just wants to drink, and forget, and drink some more. But he can´t. Not yet.
Because someone is stirring up trouble. Someone who wants to unleash a powerful ancient magic that could bring the realm of mythology crashing into the modern world.
If Ben fails to stop them, the world will burn -- and that´s the last thing he needs on his conscience.
Fans of Ben Aaronovitch and Jim Butcher will revel in this fiery tale of magic, mayhem and modern-day mythology.
A superior piece of magical myth-making. -- SFFWorld on Chasing Embers
