City of Roses is a serialized epic firmly set in Portland, Oregon, only with more sword fights-a wicked concoction of urban pastoral and incantatory fantastic, where aspirants are knighted in Forest Park, and the Devil keeps a morgue in an abandoned big-box store. Ysabel rules the City of Roses with her brother, Lymond, the King, and Jo Maguire, formerly a telemarketer, is now the Duchess of Southeast-but happily ever after doesn’t go as far as it used to.
This omnibus ebook collects chapters 23 – 44 of the critically acclaimed fantasy serial, also available in volume 3, In the Reign of Good Queen Dick, and volume 4, -or Betty Martin.
