Beschrijving
In a world where magic and danger intertwine within the crumbling remnants of a Paris steeped in history, the narrative follows a host of characters navigating the precarious landscape of power and loyalty. Aliette de Bodard crafts a richly woven tapestry, exploring the consequences of past actions and the weight of choices that echo through time.
The tapestry of intrigue is further enriched by the presence of fallen angels, immortal beings who vie for control over fractured territories while grappling with their own fraught relationships. Love, betrayal, and ambition dance intricately within the shadows of the grand houses that dot the city, each harboring secrets that could alter the fates of many.
As whispers of rebellion grow louder, alliances are tested, and bloodlines are scrutinized, the inhabitants of this dark, enchanting realm must confront the legacies they inherit and the motivations that drive them. Themes of identity, belonging, and the complexities of loyalty pulse through de Bodard’s vivid prose, captivating the reader with a hauntingly beautiful narrative.
With exquisite world-building and poignant character development, this tale pulls readers into a seductive and perilous universe. The ever-shifting dynamics between the characters create a compelling narrative that keeps the tension high as they navigate a world where the lines between right and wrong are often blurred.
