Description
1999, on the threshold of a new millennium, the novelist Daniel
Langham lives a reclusive life on an idyllic Greek island, hiding away
from humanity and the events of the past. All that changes, however,
when he meets artist Caroline Platt and finds himself falling in love.
But what is his secret, and what are the horrors that haunt him?
1935. Writer Jonathon Langham and Edward Vaughan are summoned from
London by their editor friend Jasper Carnegie to help investigate
strange goings on in Hopton Wood. What they discover there – no less
than a strange creature from another world – will change their lives
for ever.
What they become, and their link to the novelist of the future, is the
subject of Eric Brown's most ambitious novel to date. Almost ten years
in the writing, The Kings of Eternity is a novel of vast scope and
depth, full of the staple tropes of the genre and yet imbued with
humanity and characters you'll come to love.
