A fantasy masterpiece from a five-time Hugo Award winner
A war-dragon of Babel crashes in the idyllic fields of a post-industrialized Faerie and, dragging himself into the nearest village, declares himself king and makes young Will his lieutenant. Nightly, he crawls inside the young fey's brain to get a measure of what his subjects think. Forced out of his village, Will travels with female centaur soldiers, witnesses the violent clash of giants, and acquires a surrogate daughter, Esme, who has no knowledge of the past and may be immortal. Evacuated to the Tower of Babel--infinitely high, infinitely vulgar, very much like New York City--Will meets the confidence trickster Nat Whilk. Inside the Dread Tower, Will becomes a hero to the homeless living in the tunnels under the city, rises as an underling to a haint politician, meets his one true love-a high-elven woman he dare not aspire to. You've heard of hard SF: This is hard fantasy from a master of the form.Languages:EnglishPublisher:St. Martins Press-3PLISBN-13:9780765331144ISBN-10:765331144UPC:9780765331144Book Category:FictionBook Subcategory:Fantasy, Coming of AgeBook Topic:Epic, HistoricalSize:8.90 x 6.00 x 0.90 inchesWeight:0.9502Product ID:SCQK59DKBP
