Point of Dreams: A Novel of Astreiant (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The play's the thing to catch the attention of Astreiant...especially when it includes murder, mystery and magic.

It's ghost-tide in the city and the dead walk the streets, haunting those who meant something to them in life. The theaters of Point of Dreams have a hit season on their hands and Adjunct Point Nicolas Rathe and former mercenary Philip Eslingen have a murder on theirs. Not to mention a heady mix of intrigue, politics and magic, where even the flowers are more than they seem. Added to all of that, the crimelord that Philip worked for has dismissed him from his service and he's had to move in with Nico. Can Nico and Philip stop the killer before they strike again? And will their relationship survive it if they do?

Lambda Literary Award Winner for Speculative Fiction.
