Andy Morgan reviews GP Taylor's Tersias over at Ancient Modern PostModern Blog.Book Premise: London is living through one of its darkest times - a comet has just missed the Earth, leaving the city in chaos and the people fearing an apocalypse. Tersias, a blind boy oracle, has predicted the comet and sees visions of the future through the darkness. As Tersias's powers strengthen, people who seek to use them are drawn from the shadows; Malachi, a charlatan magician, Jonah, a desperate highwayman and Lord Malpas, a keeper of mysterious powers. But none of them are aware of a much darker force that torments Tersias's soul...A gripping tale of intrigue and sorcery set in a richly atmospheric London.
Morgan's review snippet...
after Shadowmancer and Wormwood, where the writing was a bit sloppy and the plot line not so well developed and easy to guess, here all the ingredients have come together. the story idea is excellent (as was the two other books) but this time taylor really delivers with the writing and the plot development and that makes it an extremely good book.
