Resumen del Editor
Description
A Gothic novel set in London during the late 19th century. The narrative starts with Solomon Tempest, a struggling writer residing in a bleak attic in the heart of the grimy metropolis. Despite his impoverished condition, Tempest clings to hope that his fortune might turn one day. One extraordinary night, he receives a letter stating he has inherited a fortune from a distant relative. This unexpected news quickly changes his fortunes and leads him to cross paths with a mysterious and charismatic figure, Prince Mario Salazar. Salazar, with his captivating yet ominous aura, offers Solomon immediate financial relief.The Enigmatic Alliance
Tempest soon finds himself drawn into Salazar's extravagant world of opulence that also harbors sinister, dark philosophies. As Solomon begins to plan a comeback in literary society with his newfound fortune, he realizes the intricate entanglements his wealth brings with.Unraveling the Mysterious
Tempest's journey becomes a whirlwind of surreal and unsettling events, forcing him to question his reality. The true nature of Prince Salazar unfolds, adding to Solomon's anxiety. The narrative beautifully punctuates this distressing journey with grand feasts, luxurious living, haunting music, and a profound spiritual awakening.Tale of Transformation
Eventually, the stark contrast between his former destitute life and his present ostentatious lifestyle launches Solomon onto a path of introspection, leading him to fathom the superficiality of materialistic happiness. The narrative masterfully captures his journey from illusion to reality, from despair to redemption.Unmasking the Supernatural
Towards the climax, Salazar's mettle is tested on a sea voyage riddled with supernatural occurrences, resulting in his ultimatemoral awakening and understanding of life's true essence. This Gothic novel paints a vivid picture of London in the late 19th century, intertwining themes of wealth, redemption, and the human condition, all set in a dark atmospheric landscape. The exploration of societal acceptance, wealth's fleeting nature, and the resultant existential dread make for a deeply engaging read. This haunting narrative is sure to engage those who appreciate the intricate tapestry that is Gothic literature.Más títulos del mismo

Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.
