Description

Adrian Tchaikovsky's City of Last Chances is a darkly inventive fantasy novel set in the occupied city of Ilmar. The city is on the verge of revolution, with a complex web of occupation, crime, and ancient curse. The catalyst for change is always the Anchorwood, a primeval grove of trees that serves as a portal to strange and distant shores. Ilmar is a city of contrasts, where refugees, wanderers, and outcasts coexist with the city's wealthy elite. The city's history is vividly alive, with a sense of its own conflicts and ideas. This is a breakneck plot through a sumptuously dangerous world, where the boundaries between reality and the unknown are constantly blurred. With its cast of fascinating characters and brilliantly realized cityscape, City of Last Chances is a triumph of epic symphonic fantasy.
