Description

She was born in poverty, in a dusty village under the equatorial sun. She does not remember her mother, she does not remember her own name, her earliest clear memory is of the day her father sold her to the tall pale man. In the Court of the Pomegranate Tree, where she was taught the ways of a courtesan and the skills of an assassin, she was named Emerald, the precious jewel of the Undying Duke's collection of beauties. She calls herself Green.

The world she inhabits is one of political power and magic, where Gods meddle in the affairs of mortals. At the center of it is the immortal Duke's city of Copper Downs, which controls all the trade on the Storm Sea. Green has made many enemies, and some secret friends, and she has become a very dangerous woman indeed.

Acclaimed author Jay Lake has created a remarkable character in Green and evokes a remarkable world in this novel. Green and her struggle to survive and find her own past will live in the readers mind for a long time.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"Lively and thought-provoking...Lake effectively anneals steampunk with geo-mechanical magic in an allegorical matrix of empire building and Victorian natural science." ( Publishers Weekly)

I’m soooooo bored.

Katherine Kellgren (the reader) is the best and the only reason I got as far as I did through this crappy book.
She read the Bloody Jack series, by far my favorite book series of all time. But this story…. I’m half way through and sooooo bored. I tried over and over and can’t do it. I’m giving up.

Pass on this book series, but rather, look up “Bloody Jack”, and you’re life will be so much better for it.
I think it’s intended for teenage girls. Since it follows a young girl, who pretends to be a cabin boy. And lives through true pirate and seafaring historical events.
I’m a 37 year old male, who has relistened to all 12 books about once a year over the last 5 years. It’s THAT enjoyable for all audiences.
