Beschreibung

Lufas and her trusty advisor Dina have been (re)joined by Aries and Libra, just two of Lufas’s fearsome adherents known as the Twelve Heavenly Stars. The next leg of their journey takes them to Gjallarhorn, the land of Lufas’s very own heaven-winged race, but she finds her people fiercely divided and on the verge of civil war— King Merak, an old friend who betrayed her, is struggling to keep the peace. It’s a race against time to prevent the heaven-winged from destroying themselves, as the gang splits up to hunt for clues that might reveal just who is responsible for sowing this discord. But can Lufas—or the young man in control of her—really afford to trust everyone in her party? Or is one of Lufas’s teammates not all that they seem?

In this heroic gaslamp fantasy, superhuman abilities bring an adventurous new dimension to 1820 London, where an outlaw speedster and a master of illusion do battle to decide who will own the city.
Think being a superhero is hard? Try being the first one.
Will’s life is a proper muddle—and all because he was “accidentally” inflicted with the ability to run faster and leap higher than any human ever. One minute he’s a blacksmith’s apprentice trying to save his master from debtor’s prison. The next he’s accused of murder and hunted as a black-hearted highwayman.
A vengeful politician with dark secrets and powers even more magical than Will’s has duped all of London into blaming Will for the chilling imprisonments of the city’s poor. The harder Will tries to use his abilities to fight crime, the deeper he is entangled in a dark underworld belonging to some of Georgian England’s most colorful characters.
Only Will stands a chance of stopping this powerful madman bent on “reforming” London by any means necessary. Unfortunately, Will is beginning to realize becoming a legend might mean sacrificing everything that matters.
