White Crow by Mary GentleDescription: An omnibus edition of the White Crow stories, a masterful collection of visionary fantasy and sublime characterisation from Mary Gentle, author of the superb Ash: A Secret History.....
A journey beyond the imagination
This omnibus edition of the White Crow stories is a masterful collection of visionary fantasy and sublime characterisation from Mary Gentle, author of the superb Ash: A Secret History, and featuring two of her most memorable characters.
The White Crow, one-time Soldier Scholar of the Invisible College and practitioner of Hermetic science and magic, and her lover, architect Baltazar Casaubon, are both amongst the most powerful players in the games of magic and politics. This collection of three linked novels: Rats and Gargoyles, Architects of Desire and Left to His Own Devices chronicles their momentous and fantastical travels through startlingly diverse and disturbing worlds and time itself.
From a city of labyrinths where rats are kings and humans their slaves, through a magical war against two dictators, to a hostile near-future London claimed by chaos, this is a brilliantly imaginative, powerfully realised journey.
