Produktbeschreibung
The third volume in Jay Lake's Clockwork Earth series continues the story of Paolina Barthes, Emily Childress, and Boaz, the mechanical man, as each seeks control of their destiny. Rejoin the adventure in the third novel of Lake's Clockwork Earth series. Paolina Barthes, young sorceress, is crossing the Equatorial Wall, attempting to take herself and her magic away from the grasp of powerful men in the empires of the north. Emily Childress is still aboard the renegade Chinese submarine, along with her devoted Captain, and the British chief petty officer Angus al-Wazir. They are all being sought most urgently by the powers that secretly rule the Northern Earth--the Silent Order and the White Birds. And a third power, of the Southern Earth, has its eye on Paolina; she will not be allowed to bring the political turmoil of the North into the more mystical South.
