The hilarious first novel in a cosy and inclusive historical romantasy series by the writer of Horrible Histories.
In an alternate Elizabethan London, Fang and Lazare, residents of Upper London, awaken from death to a startling revelation: they are no longer entirely human.
Despite gaining immortality, they find themselves distinct from vampires, zombies, or werewolves that populate Deep London, the underground city. Bound by a shared curse, these strangers embark on a quest to undo its effects while grappling with an undeniable bond burgeoning between them.
Amidst their journey through the mysterious depths of Deep London, they uncover a perilous conspiracy in which they are inexplicably entangled.
After defying death but without transforming into typical denizens of Under London, Fang and Lazare are caught in a puzzling state between mortality and immortality. Their quest to decipher this anomaly and lift the curse leads them into myriad adventures, accompanied by newfound allies like Amber, a dragon, and Nell, an apothecary.
The novel shines not only through its compelling protagonists but also through its richly drawn secondary characters. Lazare and Fang's journey is interwoven with humour that feels organic and effortless, ensuring an engaging and brisk-paced read.
