About this listen

Welcome back to Rotherweird.

The town of Rotherweird has been independent from the rest of England for 400 years to protect a deadly secret.

Sir Veronal Slickstone is dead, his bid to exploit that secret consigned to dust, leaving Rotherweird to resume its abnormal normality after the travails of the summer...but someone is playing a very long game.

Disturbing omens multiply: a funeral delivers a cryptic warning; an ancient portrait speaks; the Herald disappears - and democracy threatens the uneasy covenant between town and countryside.

Geryon Wynter's intricate plot, centuries in the making, is on the move. Everything points to one objective - the resurrection of Rotherweird's dark Elizabethan past - and to one date: the Winter Solstice.

Wynter is coming....

Critic Reviews

"Intricate and crisp, witty and solemn. Line by line, silent and adroit, it opens a series of trap-doors in the reader's imagination." (Hilary Mantel, Man Booker Prize-winning author of Wolf Hall)

"Baroque, Byzantine and beautiful - not to mention bold. An enthralling puzzle picture of a book." (M. R. Carey, best-selling author of The Girl with All the Gifts)

Don’t be afraid

Don’t be afraid of the detail, the need to keep stopping , thinking and recapping. You are meant to. This is not a story for the lovers of Harry Potter or like novels. It’s more like his dark materials crossed with the once and future king. You will reach the end and be horrified and wish the third edition was ready to go. Damn it yer honour! Get weaving and let’s have the third and hopefully last edition of this labyrinthine series. I totally loved them.
