'A vibrant tale of betrayal, intrigue and revolution' Anthony Ryan
'A thrilling, fantastical adventure that introduces a beguiling new
world' S. A. Chakraborty In the city of Bassa, Danso is a clever
scholar on the cusp of achieving greatness-only he doesn't want it.
Instead, he prefers to chase forbidden stories about what lies
outside the city walls. The Bassai elite claim there is nothing of
interest. The city's immigrants are sworn to secrecy. But when
Danso stumbles across a warrior wielding magic that shouldn't
exist, he's put on a collision course with Bassa's darkest secrets.
Drawn into the city's hidden history, he sets out on a journey
beyond its borders. But the chaos left in the wake of his discovery
threatens to destroy the empire. Award-winning author Suyi Davies

enjoyed it!' James Islington
