 Chilling and thrilling
Warner Aspect Like Anne Rice's Mayfair Witches series and Neil Gaiman's American Gods, THE AUTUMN CASTLE is a brilliant new dark fantasy debut. Berlin in autumn: Christine Starlight lives in an artist's colony in the crumbling shadows of the old European East. Her lover, Jude, is a painter whose patience and beauty have eased her long battle with chronic pain. Haunted by dim recollections of the past, Christine's life is rocked by the return of her missing childhood friend May. Abducted as a child into a place of magic and myth, May now presides over a land where a witch lives in a well, a shape-shifting wolf is her trusted counselor, and fate turns on the fall of an autumn leaf. As Christine grows addicted to May's world, where she is released from her relentless pain, so May grows addicted to Christine's, falling dangerously in love with Jude. But while jealousies, betrayals, and secrets begin to unravel the threads of their happiness, they are unaware of the threat stalking them: the cruel and brilliant Immanuel Z, who is hunting their bones for a grand sculpture.
