‘DELUSION’S MASTER – and the whole series – reveals a brilliant writer at the top of her form’ Voice Literary Supplement

A long time ago when the Earth was flat, beautiful, indifferent Gods lived in the airy Upperearth realm above, and curious, passionate demons lived in the exotic Underneath realm. Mortals were relegated to exist in the middle.

Chuz, Prince of Madness, third of the Lords of Darkness, takes pity on the world. In his gentle, soft embrace, mortal minds repose in a tide of illusion and twisted desire. Yet no one is immune from the sweetest madness of all – and even immortals fall at one throw of the bone dice . . .

‘Storytelling at its best and fantasy in its purest and strongest essence. Tanith Lee portrays with a masterful hand an amazing, ancient world’ SF Site
