The alarming Gothic story of the San Francisco of the 1970s, told by the master of the Golden Age of science fiction.
From the author of works awarded the Hugo, Locus awards and the Fantasy World Prize, the Grandmaster of the Nebel and the Lovecraft Prize for contribution to the development of the genre.
Roman, which is considered the final in the work of Fritz Leiber.
Meet the writer Franz Westen, who survived grief from the loss of a loved one and suddenly discovered that his city is more than just an accumulation of stone, concrete and metal. Cities are buzzing from otherworldly power, which may be able to splash into something that is not a place in our world.
Vesten begins to suspect that these forces are growing and their concentration is right in his house.
The book has a whole system of occult science on the connection of magical forces and the construction of cities. Among the heroes are G. F. Lovecraft, Clark Ashton Smith, Jack London and Alistair Crowley. The same fantasy that will help to see something amazing in the ordinary. A subtle interweaving of frightening mysticism with a long walk in San Fancisco, as it was in the 1970s. A real gift for a thoughtful reader!
