Winner of the World Fantasy Award and inspiration for the hit Christopher Nolan movie, genre master Christopher Priest's The Prestige is now available in a modern Tor Essentials repackage. In 1878, two young stage magicians clash in the dark during the course of a fraudulent séance. From this moment on, their lives become webs of deceit and revelation as they vie to outwit and expose one another. Their rivalry will take them to the peaks of their careers, but with terrible consequences. In the course of pursuing each other's ruin, they will deploy all the deception their magicians' craft can command--the highest misdirection and the darkest science. Blood will be spilled, but it will not be enough. In the end, their legacy will pass on for generations...to descendants who must, for their sanity's sake, untangle the puzzle left to them. With a new introduction by John CluteLanguages:EnglishPublisher:Tor BooksISBN-13:9781250343697ISBN-10:1250343690UPC:9781250343697Book Category:FictionBook Subcategory:Fantasy, Performing ArtsBook Topic:HistoricalSize:8.07 x 5.47 x 0.89 inchesWeight:0.6614Product ID:SCMX8QY4RS
