#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - "A thrilling finale to a trilogy
that will stand as one of the great achievements in American fantasy
fiction."--Stephen King
You followed The Passage. You faced The Twelve. Now enter The
City of Mirrors for the final reckoning. As the bestselling epic races
to its breathtaking finale, Justin Cronin's band of hardened survivors
await the second coming of unspeakable darkness.
The world we knew is gone. What world will rise in its place?
The Twelve have been destroyed and the terrifying hundred-year reign of
darkness that descended upon the world has ended. The survivors are
stepping outside their walls, determined to build society anew--and
daring to dream of a hopeful future.
But far from them, in a dead metropolis, he waits: Zero. The First.
Father of the Twelve. The anguish that shattered his human life haunts
him, and the hatred spawned by his transformation burns bright. His fury
will be quenched only when he destroys Amy--humanity's only hope, the
Girl from Nowhere who grew up to rise against him.
One last time light and dark will clash, and at last Amy and her friends
will know their fate.
Look for the entire Passage trilogy:

**Praise for *The City of Mirrors
"Compulsively readable."--The New York Times Book Review
"The City of Mirrors is poetry. Thrilling in every way it has to be,
but poetry just the same . . . The writing is sumptuous, the language
lovely, even when the action itself is dark and violent."--The
Huffington Post
"This really is the big event you've been waiting for . . . A true last
stand that builds and comes with a bloody, roaring payoff you won't see
coming, then builds again to the big face off you've been waiting
for."--NPR
"A masterpiece . . . with The City of Mirrors, the third volume in The
Passage trilogy, Justin Cronin puts paid to what may well be the finest
post-apocalyptic epic in our dystopian-glutted times. A stunning
achievement by virtually every measure."--***The National Post
"Justin Cronin's Passage trilogy is remarkable for the unremitting drive
of its narrative, for the breathtaking sweep of its imagined future, and
for the clear lucidity of its language."--Stephen King
