A Darker Shade of Magic

This is a new book. Condition: Brand New.

From V.E. Schwab, the critically acclaimed author of Vicious, comes a new universe of daring
adventure, thrilling power, and parallel Londons, beginning with A Darker Shade of Magic.

Kell is one of the last Travellers - magicians with a rare, coveted ability to travel between parallel
universes - as such, he can choose where he lands. There's Grey London, dirty and boring, without
any magic, ruled by a mad King George. Then there's Red London, where life and magic are
revered, and the Maresh Dynasty presides over a flourishing empire. White London, ruled by
whoever has murdered their way to the throne - a place where people fight to control magic, and
the magic fights back, draining the city to its very bones. And once upon a time, there was Black
London...but no one speaks of that now.

Officially, Kell is the Red Traveller, personal ambassador and adopted Prince of Red London,
carrying the monthly correspondences between the royals of each London. Unofficially, Kell is a
smuggler, servicing people willing to pay for even the smallest glimpses of a world they'll never
see - a dangerous hobby, and one that has set him up for accidental treason.
