Fictionsphere

di Courtney Milnestein (Autore)

Black Saturn, 2025

Throughout the entire day, she caught glimpses of the other girl wherever she went, the shape of her always tantalisingly close, a knowing smile on her lips as she waited outside the gym in her PE kit, unruly curls of strawberry blonde hair hastily tied back in a ponytail, or as she caught Anathema's eye from across the way, sitting in the classroom opposite her own, blowing kisses, beaming cheerfully. Wherever she was seen, whenever she was seen, there was that continual feeling of uneasiness, as if the younger girl's shadow did not belong to her, as if the slender shape of her, the playful smile and the irreverent gestures were hiding the presence of something else, something far older, something far more dangerous. Anathema Calohan is haunted by the unwelcome attentions of an interloper at her school. In the years since the loss of her father, she has honed her magic at her mother's request, yet all for what, she asks—to sit around at school and watch the world go by? As she grapples with her frustration, a new threat is on the horizon, an artificial Fictionsphere in the stars above them heralding the return of ancient Storytellers who fled the internecine wars of their people. As freelance magician Ayesha Swanson and her bodyguard Mister Mo are divided by the whims of Mister Oblique and UKXD, as Anathema struggles to discover the motives of the new transfer student at school, and as the very unfolding of the past is called into question by the presence of a strange archer with the ability to impact moments of their history, the remainder of Earth's last Storyteller families must now face a new threat hundreds of years in the making! The second volume in Black Saturn's Fall of Stories arrives with the fanfare of a terrible change, and life for Ayesha Swanson and her friends will never be the same again!
