<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Reissues of <i>Between Two Thorns</i> (Book 1), <i>Any Other Name</i> (Book 2), and <i>All is Fair</i> (Book 3) in Emma Newman's popular urban fantasy Split Worlds Series to tie into the release of the newest original book in the series: <i>A Little Knowledge</i> (Book 4).<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Thought-provoking, wonderfully inventive, and filled with treachery and mystery, the soaring second book in the Split Worlds Series pulls Cathy, Will, Max, and Sam deeper into the twisted world of Fae-touched society. <p/> Cathy has been reluctantly married into the Iris family and moves to Londinium, the magical Nether reflection of London, setting her on a collision course with the restrictive, high-pressure social circles that demand propriety and obedience, things the vocal and free-spirited Cathy cannot abide. Will, meanwhile, is trying to find a compromise for his new bride, but whispers in his ear are urging him towards dark deeds... <p/> Sam, determined to dive back into the world of Exilium to rescue innocents, crosses paths with Cathy and Max once again as Max and the gargoyle uncover more information about the mysterious Agency and the chain of events that wiped out the Bath Chapter. Sacrifices, terrible deals, and dreadful revelations mark this second installment of Emma Newman's wondrous Split Worlds series.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Emma Newman has built a modern fantasy world with such élan and authority her ideas of why and how the seemingly irrational world of Fairy works should be stolen by every other writer in the field. Her characters are complex and troubled, courageous at times and foolhardy. This book of wonders is first rate." --Bill Willingham, Eisner Award winner, and creator of <i>Fables</i> <p/> "Emma Newman has created a reflection of Bath that reminds one that charming is not safe. <i>Between Two Thorns</i> shows the darkness beneath the glamour of the social Season. Learning to be a young lady has never seemed so dangerous." --Mary Robinette Kowal, Hugo award winner, and author of <i>Shades of Milk and Honey</i> and <i>Glamour in Glass</i> <p/> With a feather-light touch, Emma Newman has crafted a very English fantasy, one brilliantly realised and quite delightful, weaving magic, mystery and parallel worlds together with ease. Newman may well be one of our brightest stars, <i>The Split Worlds: Between Two Thorns</i> just the beginning of a remarkable journey. --Adam Christopher, author of <i>Made to Kill </i> <p/> "Emma Newman is an extraordinary new voice in SF/F." --Paul Cornell, Hugo Award winner, and author of <i>London Falling</i> and <i>Saucer Country </i> <p/> JK Rowling meets Georgette Heyer. --<i>The Guardian</i> <p/> Newman brings an intriguing mix of modern world, Victorian/Regency England, and faery in her Split Worlds series, and this third volume brings a strong resolution to the conflicts between the worlds established in the first two volumes. --<i>LOCUS</i> magazine<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Emma Newman writes dark short stories and science fiction and urban fantasy novels.
