The first installment of the Dreamblood adventure series from the pen of today's most awarded fantasy author
The city blazed under the Dreaming Moon.
In the ancient kingdom of Gujarati, peace is the only law. On the rooftops and in the shadows of the cobbled streets of the capital, there are collectors - the guardians of this peace. They are the priests of the goddess of dreams, and their duty is to collect magic from the minds of the sleeping and use it to heal, comfort... and kill if they deem someone corrupt.
But when a conspiracy begins to run rampant in a large Gujarati temple, the collector of Ehiru must question everything he knows so far. Someone or something is murdering innocent dreamers in the goddess's name, and now Ehiru must protect the woman he was sent to kill - or the city will be consumed by war and forbidden sorcery.
They wrote about the book Smrtící luna
A gripping start to the series... an equally exciting supernatural as well as political adventure.
