Description
Book Synopsis''Blazes with pace and wit - Crilley has produced a real page turner'' Ed McDonald, author of BLACKWING
Perfect for fans of Ben Aaronovitch and Jim Butcher.
The name''s Gideon Tau, but everyone just calls me London. I work for the Delphic Division, the occult investigative unit of the South African Police Service. My life revolves around two things - finding out who killed my daughter and imagining what I''m going to do to the bastard when I catch him.
I have two friends in my life. The first is my boss, Armitage, a fifty-something DCI from Yorkshire who looks more like someone''s mother than a cop. Don''t let that fool you.
The second is the dog, my magical spirit guide. He talks. He''s an alcoholic. And he''s a mean drunk.
Life is pretty routine - I solve crimes, I search for my daughter''s killer. Wash, rinse, repeat. Until the day I''m called out to the murder of a ramanga - a low-key
Trade Review
Crilley's magical world ain't kid stuff. If you like your spellcraft dangerous, exhilarating, and chillingly double-edged, look no further. * Becky Chambers, author of THE LONG WAY TO A SMALL, ANGRY PLANET on POISON CITY *
Steeped in sun, sin, whiskey and magic, I devoured Poison City. Rarely has policing the impending apocalypse been so awesome. Sequel now! * Claire North on POISON CITY *
A sarcastic, demon-fighting cop with magic dragon tattoos and an alcoholic talking dog as a sidekick... Poison City is everything you never knew you wanted in a book. Buy it now! * Krysten Ritter on POISON CITY *
An early Tarantino version of an urban fantasy... The war is coming, says the cover; given this first battle, it's going to be one hell of a ride. * Starburst on POISON CITY *
