Sinopsis

“Beautifully grotesque, fantastically creative.” ―Hiron Ennes, author of The Works of Vermin

In an alternate early 1900s, a scientist hunts down her former research partner after he steals her life’s work before his greed reshapes the world in this darkly wondrous cosmic horror―perfect for fans of The Starving Saints and Ring Shout.

One morning in 1904, scientist Ada Franklin wakes up in her own grave. After clawing her way out, she discovers her lab abandoned and her research partner gone―along with her life’s work: a prototype designed to enable human-angel communication.

Angelic infestations have kept the original thirteen colonies from expanding for generations, but Manifest Destiny is a growing force in the new century. Whoever controls Ada’s invention may gain the power not only to communicate with angels, but to command them.

With no one else to trust, Ada resurrects her former lover, now monstrously altered by the entities they once studied. Together they pursue the man who betrayed her across a country warped by celestial horror, where angelic contact remakes both flesh and mind. But the closer Ada comes to reclaiming her work, the more she suspects humanity’s greed could prove more terrifying than the divine.

A fever dream mash-up of alternate history, dark fantasy, and eldritch horror, Angel Country delivers a morally complex tale that asks a chilling question: when faced with unimaginable power, who is truly the monster?

De la contraportada

In an alternate early 1900s, a scientist hunts down her former research partner after he steals her life’s work before his greed reshapes the world in this darkly wondrous cosmic horror.

One morning in 1904, scientist Ada Franklin wakes up in her own grave. Clawing her way out, she discovers her lab abandoned and her research partner gone—along with her life’s work: a prototype designed to enable human-angel communication. But Ada wasn’t completely unprepared. Missing specimens and stolen notes have long hinted at an increasingly tenuous partnership and hidden deals with the institutions funding their work.

Angelic infestations have kept the original thirteen colonies in place, halting westward expansion. Now, as Manifest Destiny gains momentum, Ada’s attempted murder suggests the ability to communicate with—and perhaps control—angels is a power worth killing for.

With no one else to trust, Ada allies with her ex-lover, now monstrously transformed by the forces they once studied. Together, they hunt down the man who betrayed her, racing to reclaim the prototype before his greed upends the nation.
