KING OF DEAD THINGS - NEVIN HOLNESS KARTONIERT ...

Magical contemporary London. Two lives are about to collide. A journey of self-discovery.For
fans of dark fantasy like Cemetery Boys  Noughts and Crosses and Threads that Bind from major
new YA talent Jamaican British author Nevin Holness The first time Eli had tried taking magic
that wasn¿t his  it had wrapped around his palms like razor wire  tight enough that he¿d needed
stitches. Since then  Eli had bled magic from a soul enough times that he knew the rhythm of
it. He knew what kinds of magic to stay away from and which he could upsell  which would get
stuck beneath his fingernails and which would crumble and turn to ash if he held on too
tightly. Eli doesn't know who he is or where he came from. What he does know is that he can
pluck the magic from a soul like a petal from a flower. And he knows there is nothing he
wouldn't borrow  steal or destroy in order to discover his past. Malcolm knows he can raise the
dead with a wave of his hand but all he really wants is to be able to save his mother. When Eli
is sent to track down the legendary fang of the leopard god Osebo  he finds himself entangled
with an old and ancient power. Forced to team up  Malcolm and Eli must weave through the cracks
of London  unearthing magic that should have stayed buried. Until finally  they face a power
greater than either of them could have imagined: the daughter of Death herself . . . Raising
the dead is easy  living is harder.
