A mysterious masked figure spurs strange rebellion, while treachery and violence incubate in unexpected places. <p/> In desperation, a small group of renegades escapes from the city and crosses strange and alien continents in the search for a lost hope. <p/> In the blood and violence of New Crobuzon's most dangerous hour, there are whispers.
