The City around the World

Product Description Dasein: he craves it, he needs it. The needle rules his whole life, but when he stumbles upon a mysterious object, his world is thrown into disarray. Can he fight his addiction long enough to survive, or will he succumb to the monsters living without and within? From the Back Cover "The world Harper has built is vast, engaging, so alive and vibrant it's impossible not to be fascinated with. From Pau Market, a place at once intriguing and dangerous, to the south, where indebted slaves pull buses without engines, fed enough water to keep them upright enough to earn money for their masters. It isn't a pleasant place, far from it; but it's an intriguing place, one you have to keep reading about to try and garner more clues, to try and learn more about what's going on. Harper feeds information sparingly, but gives just enough so as to keep you hooked, and make you want more." Robert Welbourn, author of Ideal Angels.
