Beskrivelse
Deep in the bowels of Rhuddlan Castle the ancient vampire Lilly waits, reflecting on the bizarre twists of fate that brought her here. Leaving behind her lover and maker Gabriele, Lilly treads a path between instinct and survival: always living in fear of paradox. Through a series of mysterious time portals she samples as many ages as she does victims, railing against the forces of destiny to fight her way back to her own time. From a veritable Garden of Eden, through Viking rape, pillage and massacre, via the Machiavellian salons of sixteenth-century Rome and violent twentieth-century Stockholm nightclubs, she has learned the hard way what being a vampire really means. Can Lilly now reconcile her love of Gabriele with the freedom she has enjoyed to love elsewhere? Winner of the British Fantasy Award for Best Novel 2010. 'Enticing, shocking and delightful ... A fast moving story that's spellbinding, as thrilling as it is intelligent and thought provoking ... Sam Stone writes with stylish panache.' Simon Clark
