Edition: First Regan Arts hardcover edition.
Description: 295 pages ; 24 cm
M is an ageless drifter with a sharp tongue, few scruples, and the ability to bend reality to his will, ever so slightly. Hes come back to New York City after a long absence, and though hed much rather spend his days drinking artisanal beer in his favorite local bar, his old friends-- and his enemies-- have other plans for him. One night M might find himself squaring off against the pirates who cruise the Gowanus Canal; another night sees him at a fashionable uptown charity auction where the waitstaff are all zombies. A subway ride through the inner circles of hell? In Ms world, thats practically a pleasant diversion. Before too long, M realizes hes landed in the middle of a power struggle between Celise, the elegant White Queen of Manhattan, and Abilene, Brooklyns hip, free-spirited Red Queen, a rivalry that threatens to make New York go the way of Atlantis. To stop it, M will have to call in every favor, waste every charm, and blow every spell hes ever acquired-- he might even have to get out of bed before noon. Enter a world of Wall Street wolves, slumming scenesters, desperate artists, drug-induced divinities, pocket steampunk universes, and demonic coffee shops. Ms New York, the infinite nexus of the universe, really is a city that never sleeps-- but is always dreaming.
