The Queen ‘neath the Hedge came from nowhere to conquer two worlds. Her treaty unites them still, binding every Briton to their shadow selves - their Umbra - from the unknowable Other Realm.
London, 1790s: Umbra are the dark hidden part of us that makes us whole. They visit us daily from their lives in the Other Realm. Arthur knows his Umbra, Amorrie, will be the death of him. It’s a mortal bond and both realms are on the cusp of war. She arrives for a ball naked, covered in blood and with a broken leg. That night he learns a celebrated warrior has been killed in the Other Realm.
Pride and Prejudice fans will find literature’s greatest romance disrupted by a jealous Umbra. Fans of Philip Pullman’s His Dark Materials will discover Umbra have very different agendas from daemons. Fans of Susanna Clarke’s Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell will feel utterly at home.
