Produktinformationen zu „The Masked City “
The second instalment of an adventure featuring stolen books, secret agents and forbidden societies - think Doctor Who but with librarian spies!
Klappentext zu „The Masked City “
Irene is ready for action - but so are her adversaries.Librarian-spy Irene is working undercover in an alternative Victorian London, for her mysterious supervisors. Here it's business as usual - until her assistant Kai is abducted. Kai's part-dragon heritage means he has powerful enemies, and this act of aggression could trigger a war between his people and their greatest rivals. As they each represent the forces of order and chaos themselves, matters could turn unpleasant.
Irene's mission to save Kai and avert Armageddon will take her to a dark, alternate Venice where it's always Carnival. Here Irene will be forced to blackmail, fast talk, and fight. Or she'll face mayhem - at the very least.

Autoren-Porträt von Genevieve Cogman
Genevieve Cogman started on Tolkien and Sherlock Holmes at an early age, and has never looked back. But on a perhaps more prosaic note, she has an MSC in Statistics with Medical Applications and has wielded this in an assortment of jobs: clinical coder, data analyst and classifications specialist. Although The Invisible Library was her debut novel, she has also previously worked as a freelance roleplaying game writer. She is also the author of The Masked City and The Burning Page, both in The Invisible Library series. Genevieve Cogman's hobbies include patchwork, beading, knitting and gaming, and she lives in the north of England.

Pressezitat
I absolutely loved this ... flavored with truly unique mythology and a dash of the eldritch. Such clever, creepy, elaborate worldbuilding and snarky, sexy-smart characters! N. K. Jemisin on The Invisible Library (Book One)
