Articoli correlati a Dark Blood
Police officer Donal Riordan, killed and brought back to life with the heart of his undead lover beating in his chest, is getting used to a bizarre and frightening new existence. As one of the undead the living citizens of Tristopolis distrust and fear him. But death has its advantages. He can sense the presence, the thoughts the feelings of his fellow zombies, he is tireless, he can see better, hear more acutely.
But none of this will necessarily save him as he begins to investigate who is behind a plot to ensorcel the entire population of Tristopolis. The plot goes right to the top and anyway who gets in the way will be killed again.
And all the time the members of the Unity party are stoking the fires of hatred towards the undead.
John Meaney's new series is a superb melding of the science fiction and horror genres and is perfectly timed for the resurgance of horror in the market.

Recensione:
"John Meaney's city of Tristopolis is a vivid and fascinating creation. Meaney entertainingly merges the police procedural with science fantasy in its most gothic mode." (Lisa Tuttle THE TIMES)
Dark Blood is highly entertaining, more action driven and seasoned with splatters of the titular liquid. (Andrew Osbourne SFX)
As John Meaney follows his take on magic's equivalent of nuclear technology through to its logical conclusion he creates one of the most satisfying border crossing fusions of Dark Fantasy, Horror and hard Science Fiction in years... before hitting us with a twist ending straight out of Edgar Allan Poe. (STARBURST)
"Dark Blood is a sardonic but emotionally complex tale of ambition, politics, ruthlessness and other traits we identify as human." (LOCUS)
