Sherlock Holmes meets Jack Vance’s Dying Earth inMajestrum, the explosive new novel from MatthewHughes, acclaimed author of Black Brillion, FoolsErrant, and The Gist Hunter and Other Stories.
The scientific method and a well-calibrated mindhave long served freelance discriminator HenghisHapthorn, allowing him to investigate andsolve the problems of the wealthy and powerfularistocracy of Old Earth, and securing him areputation for brilliance across The Spray andthroughout the Ten Thousand Worlds. But theuniverse is shifting, cycling away from logic andreason and ushering in a new age of sympatheticassociation, better known as magic.
This change is evidenced by the unexplainedtransformation of Henghis Hapthorn’s personalelectronic integrator into a small fruit-eatingcreature. Odder still, Hapthorn’s personality hasbeen cleaved into two distinct beings sharing onebody: himself, familiar and appropriate to therational old order; and the other, strange, intuitive,and obsessed with an arcane and untranslatedtome, appropriate to the new.
When Hapthorn is hired by Lord Afre toinvestigate the motives of his daughter’s newcompanion, a young man of indeterminatecircumstances, he takes the job expecting it to allowhim the opportunity to explore and understand hischanging universe. Little does Henghis Hapthornrealize, but the path of discovery will lead todeeper questions, a mysterious assignment fromthe Archon himself, and the ancient and powerfulsecret name... Majestrum!
