Angels and demons alike watch and wait as the last warriors of old
Europe invade the New World in this magnificent conclusion to the
Age of Unreason alternate history series The alchemical catastrophe
that Sir Isaac Newton inadvertently unleashed late in the
seventeenth century has transformed Europe into a cold, dead
wasteland in the eighteenth-much to the delight of the otherworldly
malakim, who have set humanity at war with itself for the sin of
dabbling in the arcane. The last inhabitable territory, the New
World, is now the coveted prize of the surviving European warlords.
From the West, Russian forces led by the Sun Boy, child of the
powerful French sorceress Adrienne de Mornay de Montchevreuil, move
relentlessly onward, leaving a trail of devastation in their wake.
British troops in the East are equally merciless in their
conquests. All that stands against them is a motley alliance of
colonists, Native Americans, scientists, philosophers, displaced
Europeans, and others led by Ben Franklin, now an alchemist of
great repute, and Red Shoes, a Choctaw shaman with questionable
motivations. But no matter who wins or loses, the manipulating
angels and demons are always watching, and the malakim are
determined to be the ultimate victors. In The Shadows of God, the
Age of Unreason, Greg Keyes's magnificent alternate history series,
comes to a stunning and most satisfying conclusion. It is the final
chapter in a colorful, exciting, richly detailed, and ingeniously
imagined chronicle of life on a damaged Earth where magic and
science are on equal planes and history's icons inhabit a past that
never was.
