| The award-winning author returns to the gritty, post-industrial faerie world of his New York Times Notable Book The Iron Dragon’s Daughter. A Kirkus Reviews Best Science Fiction and Fantasy Book of the Year A Locus Award Finalist Caitlin of House Sans Merci is the young half-human pilot of a sentient mechanical dragon. Returning from her first soul-stealing raid, she discovers an unwanted hitchhiker. When Caitlin is framed for the murder of her brother, to save herself she must disappear into Industrialized Faerie, looking for the one person who can clear her. Unfortunately, the stakes are higher than she knows. Her deeds will change her world forever. “Michael Swanwick's twisty tale of a half-human changeling warrior is the third work to be set in his ‘Industrialized Faërie’ world, the most thoroughly imagined fictional realm since that of J.R.R. Tolkien.” ―The Wall Street Journal “Swanwick’s final Faerie novel [is] a thoroughly fascinating meditation on the Nietzschean adventures of his earlier novels.” ―Los Angeles Review of Books “Twisted in the right way, with tart and tricksy language you can swirl around in your mouth like good wine, it is a perfect, perfect book.” ―Jane Yolen, World Fantasy Award–winning author “Discworld meets Faust. They do not like each other. Philip Pullman picks up the pieces.” ―Kirkus Reviews (starred review) |
