So far we have really enjoyed Tim Lebbon’s Relics trilogy that started with Relics in 2017 and continued with The Folded Land in 2018. The third and final book in the series The Edge is due to be published by our good friends at Titan Books in June 2019 and yes I know it’s a long wait to discover whether Vince and Angela can help humankind survive the forthcoming battle with the kin, but in the mean time here’s a sneak preview of the new cover artwork designed by Julia Lloyd.
So what can we expect to find inside? Titan books had this to say:
‘Beneath the surface of our world, mythological creatures and their artifacts still exist. As with a rhino horn, a tiger’s bones, or a monkey’s paw, corrupt people pay fortunes for a sliver of a satyr’s hoof, a gryphon’s claw, a basilisk’s scale, or an angel’s wing. These criminals also sell living supernatural creatures, whole or a piece at a time, to be harvested for their supernatural essence. Having become embroiled in the secret world of the Relics, creatures known as the Kin, Angela Gough is on the run in the United States.
Forty years ago the town of Longford was the site of a deadly disease outbreak that wiped out the entire population. The infection was contained, the town isolated, and the valley in which it sits flooded and turned into a reservoir. The truth—that the outbreak was intentional, and not every resident of Longford died—disappeared beneath the waves.
Now the town is revealed again. The Kin have an interest in the ruins, as do the fairy Grace and the Nephilim leader Mallian. The infection has risen from beneath silent waters, and this forgotten town becomes the focus of the looming battle between humankind and the Kin.’
It all sounds pretty good to us, roll on 2019.
