A city that the Ministry rules from the sunlit summit, and where the forsaken lurk in the darkness of Under.</p><p>Rojan Dizon doesn't mind staying in the shadows, because he's got things to hide.

But he can't hide for ever.</p><p>Because when Rojan stumbles upon the secrets lurking in the depths of the Pit, the fate of Mahala will depend on him using his magic. And unlucky for Rojan - this is going to hurt.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"<i>Fade to Black</i> is superb, and raises the benchmark quite high indeed for 2013's other debut fantasies. Very highly recommended."--<b><i>Civilian Reader</b></i><br><br>"A savage stab at organised religion and social control... emotionally powerful."--<b><i>Sun (UK) on Fade to Black</b></i><br><br>"Intensely realized and gripping."--<b><i>Kirkus Reviews</b></i><br><br>"Knight's debut recalls the vibrant, urban-based fantasies of China Miéville, Jay Lake, and Glen Cook. Combining traces of steampunk with urban noir fantasy, this story should appeal to fans of most fantasy variants."--<b><i>Library Journal</b></i><br><br>"The persistent sense of lurking danger along with Rojan's inner conflict between apathy and authentic emotion contribute to an absorbing read."--<b><i>RT Book Reviews</b></i><br><br>"A brilliant adventure/mystery which totally lived up to the cover... A thoroughly enjoyable read with plenty of twists and turns, and darkness enough to make the title perfectly apt. Highly recommended."--<b><i>thebookbag.co.uk</b></i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><br>
