Questa epica serie fantasy immerge i lettori in una città sospesa sopra un abisso senza fondo, dove si scontrano antichi poteri e conflitti irrisolti. Segui i destini intrecciati di un'improbabile alleanza tra l'ultimo degli angeli guerrieri e un'assassina spietata mentre si addentrano in un pericoloso baratro pieno di segreti e tradimenti. È un racconto di vendetta, redenzione e lotta per la sopravvivenza in un mondo morente dove i confini tra bene e male si sfumano.
For nine hundred generations, the city of Deepgate has hung suspended by giant chains over a bottomless abyss. In the unfathomable darkness below is said to reside the dread god Ulcis, with his army of ghosts. At the hub of the city itself rises the Temple, in one of whose many crumbling spires resides a youthful angel, Dill, the last of his line.
Volume 2 of 'The Deepgate Codex' takes us back into an amazingly colourful fantasy world where surprise and danger wait around every corner
