Description de l’éditeur
The Demi-Monde is about to reach its catastrophic conclusion . . .
For thousands of years the Grigori have lain hidden, dreaming of the day when they will emerge from the darkness. Now that day draws close.
Norma, Trixie and Ella fight doggedly to frustrate these plans, but they need help. Percy Shelley must lead Norma to the Portal in NoirVille so she can return to the Real World. Trixie's father must convince her that, if she is to destroy the Great Pyramid standing in Terror Incognita, she must be prepared to die. And Vanka Maykov - though not the man she knew and loved - must guide Ella to the secret enclave of the Grigori, where she will face the most chilling of enemies.
In this explosive finale to the Demi-Monde series, our heroes will come to understand that resisting evil will require courage, resolve . . . and sacrifice.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In this final volume of the massively complex Demi-Monde series (after The Demi-Monde: Summer), Rees pulls together far-flung threads and weaves them into a grand finale replete with violence and plot twists. The time has come for myriad intrigues perpetuated by the Bole Institute and ParaDigm Corporation to come to fruition, both in the Real World and in the Demi-Monde. Norma Williams, the newly minted messiah still stuck in the Demi-Monde, must reach the Real World immediately, while Trixie Dashwood confronts his Holiness Aleister Crowley and the UnFunDaMentalists who are bent on dominating Demi-Monde. The QuanPuter ABBA, the massive quantum computer that created the Demi-Monde, finally tips its hand to actively tinker with both worlds. This is not anything like a starting point for new readers, but fans of the series will admire the daring conclusion to Rees's steampunk techno-thriller.
