� 2006: 1st in the 'Deepgate Codex' series of books. Unknown publication date. 7th printing of 2007 edition:- Synopsis: For a hundred generations the city of Deepgate has hung suspended by chains over a seemingly bottomless abyss. In the darkness below is said to reside the dread god Ulcis with his army of ghosts. Outside the city extend the barren wastes of Deadsands, inhabited by enemy tribesmen, and safe access is guaranteed only by airship. At the hub of the city rises the Temple, in one of whose many crumbling spires resides a youthful angel, Dill, the last of his line. Descendant of heroic battle-archons, though barely able to wield the great sword he has inherited, he lives a sheltered existence under the watchful eye of Presbyter Sypes, ruler of the Temple. Yet Dill has a destiny about to unfold - one that takes him down into the terrifying depths of the pit in a desperate quest to save the teeming city from total annihilation:- Review(s): "A visually rich, satisfyingly dark tale of a city of chains, ancient bloodlust and unshakeable loyalty" - Trudi Canavan / "I haven't read a fantasy this good in years - it is utterly marvelous" - Neal Asher / "A dark, violent fantasy full of vivid images. A fast-paced action-packed book" - The Times / "Scar Night is indecently good" - Guardian / "Well thought out and very dark. I'd certainly read the next one" - Daily Telegraph:- (original cost �7.99).
