A striking Icelandic debut set on Reykjavik's frosted streets, in a world where wild and industrialised magic meet.
Perfect for fans of Neil Gaiman's Neverwhere and China Mieville's The City & The City.
S mundur, a drug-addicted student of magic, has been expelled from the university. Obsessed with proving his teachers wrong, he will stop at nothing to gain absolute power over the craft of galdur. Especially elements which have been long forbidden.
Garun is an outcast: half-human, half-huldufolk. Part of both groups but accepted by neither, her very existence is a violation of dimensional boundaries. That won't stop her fighting for her dream of a just society, even if she has to do it with no more than her graffiti cans.
This is a tale of revolution set in a twisted Reykjavik, fuelled by industrialised magic. In a world populated by humans, interdimensional exiles, monsters, psychoactive graffiti and demonic familiars, the times will soon be changing . . .
