Beschrijving uitgever
Werewolf gladiator Grit faced his own mortality in the arena, only to be resurrected by a demon. Grit now lives a shadowy existence as one of the soulless, remembering only bits and pieces of his former life. Nonetheless, he recognizes evil and knows he must fight for the future of his young son, as well as the rest of the world.
Zari, a vampire warrior, helped Grit escape the tower where he had been imprisoned. She had feelings for Grit when they'd first met, but at the time he had been mated to another wolf. Now that he's on his own, they're free to explore their feelings as they fight side by side as part of the rebellion against the demons. In the midst of war, their love grows, but danger is everywhere.
Haylen, the demon who resurrected Grit, offers a bargain that may save or destroy the rebellion. Whatever the outcome, Zari and Grit intend to face it together and explore the once forbidden passion between them.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Hill (The Folded Man) introduces a lawless Manchester, U.K., in 2025, where Roy and Sol, two hitmen and carjackers, eke out a miserable existence for themselves. After stealing a car, Sol discovers a three-armed woman, Y, in the trunk; she was a prisoner who was left behind by her traffickers. Sol resolves to help Y escape the horror that is her life. As the mystery of Y's existence and her purpose unfolds, Hill captures the dark underbelly of Manchester in visceral prose. There is a unique horror in Y's predicament, and Hill renders it in chilling terms. The dual points of view is a nice addition to the narrative. Several sharp jolts in the story are employed to heighten suspense, but sometimes they confuse the narrative. Hill's world is tinged with a sense of foreboding in this refreshing take on a futuristic mystery.
