Moon Witch, Spider King: Dark Star Trilogy 2: Dark Star Trilogy, cartea 2
Autor Marlon Jamesen Limba Engleză Hardback – 2 mar 2022
THE SECOND NOVEL IN THE REVOLUTIONARY DARK STAR TRILOGY IS HERE!
Booker Prize-winner Marlon James once again draws on a rich tradition of African mythology and fantasy to imagine a mythic world, a lost child, a 177-year-old witch and a mystery with many answers . . .
*Perfect for fans of Pratchett, George R. R. Martin and Octavia Butler*
'Even more gripping and inventive than its predecessor . . . like Tolkien on ayahuasca' Observer
*****
Part adventure, part chronicle of an indomitable woman - the witch Sogolon - who bows to no man, this is an unforgettable exploration of power, personality, and the places where they overlap, set in a world at once ancient and startlingly modern.
In the words of Neil Gaiman, James has created 'a fantasy world as well-realized as anything Tolkien made, with language as powerful as Angela Carter's'.
Chronicling the same events but telling a very different story - who will you believe? Read THE DARK STAR TRILOGY in any order! Book one, BLACK LEOPARD, RED WOLF, is available now.

'Told with James' inimitable linguistic verve . . . Riotous, ultraviolent, dazzlingly inventive' Literary Hub
