Sinopsis

The British Empire is teetering on the brink of war with France.áA war that may, for the first time, see magicians in the ranks on both sides.áThe Royal Sorceress, Lady Gwendolyn Crichton, will be responsible for the EmpireâÇÖs magical resources when the time comes.áStill struggling to overcome prejudice within the Royal College of Sorcerers, she has at least earnt the gratitude of much of the aristocracy, if not their respect.áJust when Gwen needs to be firmly focussed on training new sorcerers, her adopted daughter Olivia, the only known living necromancer, is kidnapped. Her abduction could signal a terrible new direction in the impending war.áBut Intelligence soon establishes that it was Russian agents who took Olivia, so an incognito Gwen joins a British diplomatic mission to Russia, an uncertain element in the coming conflict.áOnce she has arrived in St Petersburg, she discovers that the Tsar is deranged and with the help of a mad monk has a plan that threatens the entire world.Immediately following on from The Great Game, Necropolis sees Gwen thrust into the wider international arena as political unrest spreads throughout Europe and beyond, threatening to hasten an almighty conflict.áOnce again Christopher G. Nuttall combines exciting fantasy with believable alternate history that is almost close enough for us to touch.
