Bestselling authors Cassandra Khaw and Richard Kadrey have teamed up
to deliver a dark new story with magic, monsters, and mayhem, perfect
for fans of Neil Gaiman and Joe Hill.
Julie Crews is a coked-up, burnt-out thirty-something who packs a lot of
magic into her small body. She's been trying to establish herself in the
NYC magic scene, and she'll work the most gruesome gigs to claw her way
to the top.
Julie is desperate for a quick career boost to break the dead-end grind,
but her pleas draw the attention of an eldritch god who is hungry for
revenge. Her power grab sets off a deadly chain of events that puts her
closest friends - and the entire world - directly in the path of
annihilation.
The first explosive adventure in the Carrion City Duology, The Dead
Take the A Train fuses Khaw's cosmic horror and Kadrey's gritty fantasy
into a full-throttle thrill ride straight into New York's magical
underbelly.
