Lila Black: half woman, half robot, all attitude, is going back to the future . . . Fifty years have passed since the third volume of high-octane, high-magic, high-tech adventures. After being tricked by one of the greater fae Lila Black finds home much altered in her absence. The human world has survived the reign of a faery invasion, but not without casualties, and now darker forces are at work. Her husband's been framed for murder. Her sister is dead. Reality itself is beginning to break down. If she doesn't find out who is behind all this then there might not be much future left for anyone. "This is bright, fast-moving and accessible SF that mixes in fantasy, and a cool cult-lit sensibility, to create a series that will appeal to all fans of Laurell K. Hamilton and Peter Hamilton alike." (Gollancz, UK)
