Zusatztext The essence of what Sykes has captured here is like the literary equivalent of the "Lost" TV series at it's height! character focused with superb action and a teasing reveal just out of reach but ultimately dealing with each character's personal plight. It's a "de-construction" of High fantasy! a fresh perspective on a tried and tested genre that re-interprets many of the tenants that the genre is founded upon. Informationen zum Autor Samuel Sykes began writing his debut novel, Tome of the Undergates (the first book in his Aeon's Gate trilogy) when he was seventeen. Since then, he has also written Black Halo, The Skybound Sea and the Bring Down Heaven trilogy that begins with The City Stained Red . He currently lives in the US, where he is working on his next novel. Klappentext THE TOME OF THE UNDERGATES HAS BEEN RECOVERED And the gates of hell remain closed. For now . . . Lenk and his five companions set sail to bring the accursed relic away from the demonic reach of Ulbecetonth, the Kraken Queen. But after weeks at sea, tensions amidst the adventurers are rising. Their troubles are only beginning when their ship crashes upon an island made of the bones left behind from a war long dead. But bloodthirsty alien warrior women, fanatical beasts from the deep and heretic-hunting wizards are the least of their concerns. Haunted by their pasts, plagued by their gods, tormented by their own people and gripped by madnesses personal and peculiar, their greatest foes may yet be themselves. The reach of Ulbecetonth is longer than hell can hold . . . 'Sam Sykes is the Hot Young Turk of fantastic fiction' JAMES A.
