Articoli correlati a Shadow of the Lords
Mexico, 1517. The Aztec capital is awash with fear and rumours. A strange figure has been seen running through the streets. A being with the face of a snake, his body covered in glittering green plumage: Quetzalcoatl - the Feathered Serpent. Is it an omen? Or is it the god himself, come to warn of impending disaster? Yaotl, the Chief Minister's slave, has more immediate matters to worry about. Engaged in a desperate search for his son, he's on the run from his vengeful master, the all-powerful Lord Feathered-in-Black. Attempting to escape his master's bloodthirsty warriors, Yaotl stumbles on a dismembered, unrecognisable corpse. As he pieces together the clues to who the dead man was and how he died, Yaotl finds himself drawn into an affair of greed, jealousy and lust among the ancient, secretive society of the feather workers, the Aztec's foremost craftsmen.

Recensione:
'It is always a treat to find a writer who has broken out of the mould and ploughed their own furrow. One of the stand-out books from last year was Simon Levack's delicously original whodunit, A DEMON OF THE AIR, set during the Aztec's final years. By turns darkly comic, meticulously descriptive and bloodthirsty, Yaotl the slave is back for a second outing . . . [SHADOW OF THE LORDS] is an exhilirating, fast-paced tale . . . there is plenty of plot, well-rounded characters and some black humour to make this second book a delight' THE HISTORICAL NOVELS REVIEW may issue
L'autore:
Simon Levack trained as a solicitor and still works in the legal profession. He lives in east London with his wife and son. He is the author of three Aztec murder mysteries: A DEMON OF THE AIR, which won the Crime Writers' Association's Debut Dagger Award; SHADOW OF THE LORDS and A CITY OF SPIES.
