Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Suspended by chains over a seemingly bottomless abyss, the ancient city of Deepgate is home to a young angel, an assassin, and a psychotic murderer hungry for revengeor redemption. But soon a shocking betrayal will unite all three in a desperate quest....

The last of his line, Dill is descended from legendary Battle-archons who once defended the city. Forbidden to fly and untrained even to wield the great sword inherited from his forebears, he has become a figurehead for a dying tradition. Now he lives a sheltered existence in one of Deepgates crumbling temple spires under the watchful eye of the Presbyter who rules the city.

Spine assassin Rachel Hael has better things to do than oversee the Presbyters angel. Each dark moon she must fight for her life among the city chains, hunting an immortal predator with a taste for blood.

But when a traitor brings enemies to Deepgates doorstep, Dill and Rachel are forced into an uneasy alliance with the citys oldest and most dangerous foe. They must journey down into the uncharted chasm to save their sprawling metropolisand themselvesfrom annihilation. Once they descend however, they learn that what lies below is far more sinister than what theyve been taught to expect.
