The Seelie Court controls an empire of a thousand suns, each world linked to the next by the oneirium gateways of the Guild of Gatemakers. But the oneirium is running out... While the empire plunders the conquered worlds to stave off its own destruction, four people find themselves caught up in a race to uncover an ancient relic of unimaginable value. Celandine Brey - an orphan, apprentice gatemaker and, for reasons she doesn't know, the key to a treasure that could save or destroy the empire. Ana Zanbir - a demon-hunter on the run from her husband-creator, now bound to Celandine by an unbreakable oath. Orlando Swaan - a streetwise thief, naive schemer and Edenist rebel. Mr Sukh - a former soldier to the Priest King of Osetia, veteran of the last great Engine War between man and machine, now servant to a man who has been dead for six hundred years. From the narcotic grasslands of Aphid to the ancient temples of Nachista, from the high-rise cityscape of Termagore to the junk world of Immonda, A Gateway Made Of Bone is a fantastic journey through the conflict and chaos of a civilisation on the verge of collapse."
