Qwyrk

Autor Tim Rayborn
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 mai 2021
Qwyrk is having a bad day; several, in fact. One of the Shadow folk tasked with keeping an eye on humanity, she's ready for a well-earned break in Yorkshire, but now she's (literally) run into a girl, Jilly, who just saw something quite supernatural and truly awful happen in her town. As Qwyrk tries to unravel the mystery, layers of villainy are exposed, and she's stuck with an assortment of unlikely folk that she'd rather not have "helping" her. Together, they confront ancient magic, medieval conspiracies, and the possible end of the world (that again?). It's not the holiday Qwyrk was hoping for! QWYRK is the first in a series of four novels about the adventures of a group of misfits at the edge of reality in modern northern England, a world of shadows, Nighttime Nasties, sorcery, intergalactic councils, tacky nightclub attire, Monty Pythonesque humor, and even elves... though they are a bit silly.

Notă biografică

Tim Rayborn has written a rather ridiculous number of books over the past several years (about fifty). He lived in England for quite some time and has a PhD from the University of Leeds, which he likes to pretend means that he knows what he's talking about. His generous output of written material covers such diverse topics as music, the arts, history, the strange and bizarre, fantasy and sci-fi , and general knowledge. He's already planning on writing more books, whether anyone wants him to or not. He's also an internationally acclaimed musician. He plays dozens of unusual instruments that quite a few people have never heard of and often can't pronounce, including medieval instrument reconstructions and folk instruments from Northern Europe, the Balkans, and the Middle East. He has appeared on over forty recordings, and his musical wanderings and tours have taken him across the US, all over Europe, to Canada and Australia, and to such romantic locations as Marrakech, Istanbul, Renaissance chateaux, medieval Italian hill towns, and high school gymnasiums. He currently lives in Washington State, surrounded by many books and instruments, as well as with a sometimes-demanding cat.
