Blakewood Volume 1

Corrupt politicians. Murderous criminals. A missing teenager. And just a hint of magic. Welcome to Metrogrande… When a teenager with a taste for the arcane goes missing, occult investigator Antony Blakewood is dragged out of his pit of despair and onto a trail of violence, corruption and murder that leads from seedy flop-house to towering penthouse. No-one ever said magic was pretty… Marrying the hard-boiled detective fiction of Raymond Chandler to the esoteric mysticism of vintage pulp magazines, BLAKEWOOD is a thrilling neo-noir fantasy, set in a world not so very far from our own… This first volume collects chapters one to seven of Kev Rooney's comic serial and will be continued in volumes two and three.
