TENTH ANNIVERSARY EDITION.
"It is an evil born of war. It is the end of all things."
Four hundred years ago, Ed and Alice Rico threw themselves through a mysterious portal on the London Underground, hunting for Ed's lost brother-Alice's husband-Verne.
Now, starship captain Katherine Abdulov embarks on a desperate race against ruthless rival captain-and her former lover-Victor Luciano, to try and earn back her family's trust.
Tomorrow, all their lives will be thrown together by disaster, as an ancient evil stirs among the stars, threatening the survival of all life...
Tenth anniversary re-issue of the critically acclaimed space opera by a master of British SF, with beautiful new art.
