Böcker av Christopher L Adams

Ria Rudee always wanted to live beyond the walls, but Afflicted like her are never allowed. Those the birthmark appears on will one day transform into giant Spiderlike monsters, called The Dreaded. The Blade Unit, those tasked with killing the Dreaded and hunting any escaped Afflicted, chase Ria when she escapes the compound, bringing her face to face with the Blade Unit cadet Teo Lockwater. Both of their pasts, both of their fears, and both of their futures will be in each others hands whether they trust each other or not.

Androids, science, and magic. All exist in tandem. Despite this idea, an alternate truth is transpiring on the streets of the U.K. The time-magic detective Sai, her computer adept sister Ren, and their android friend Blue set forth to uncover a new mystery. An incurable strain of mana poisoning rampages through England's citizens and the HW Detective Agency is determined to uncover the plot...no matter how many times it kills Sai.
