Kell is one of only two people who has the ability to move
between worlds. There are four worlds
that all contain a city called London.
Kell calls his home Red London, the world without magic is Grey London,
Black London was sealed off years ago as too dangerous and White London stands
between Red and Black and grows more dangerous every year. Kell has a bad habit of illegally transporting
trinkets between the worlds. When
someone asks him to deliver a message and hands him a small package as payment,
Kell crosses worlds, only to find that the message is a ruse and the payment is
a rock from Black London that contains wild, dangerous magic. This rock has the power to destroy all he
holds dear and there are people who want to recover it who will stop at nothing
to get it. With the help of a woman from
Grey London, Lila, Kell must find a way to stop his pursuers and return the
rock to Black London, and stay alive.
This was a terrific fantasy story that I would highly recommend.
