Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

Set early in the 19th century, Powers's ( On Stranger Tides ) seventh novel is a horror story that wonderfully evokes the period. On the stormy night before his wedding, Dr. Michael Crawford, in an ill-advised moment while drinking and carousing with two of his friends, slips his intended's ring on the finger of a statue of a woman in the inn's courtyard. The next morning the statue has disappeared. Disturbed, Crawford purchases a new ring and goes to his wedding. The night's celebrations are followed by a morning infinitely more horrifying than the previous one--Crawford awakens to find his bride murdered. Doubting his own sanity, he flees England, becoming aware that he is pursued by a lamia --a malignant female spirit. He seeks help from his friends, the poets Byron and Shelley, who, it turns out, have experience with such a monster. Strewn with literary personages and allusions, the book is entertaining on several levels, but most particularly as a chilling horror-adventure.

By	S Peterson "Thais Peterson" (Haslet, TX) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Stress Of Her Regard (Paperback)

This was the first Tim Powers book I read. His retelling of that enchanted summer that Shelly and Byron stayed in Italy is amazing and moving. The characters are well drawn and the lamia are terrifying. Don't miss this one.
