Le sang a de nouveau coule dans la majestueuse Tenochtitlan, la capitale de l'Empire azteque. Acatl, grand pretre des morts, doit a tout prix retrouver une pretresse disparue, s'il veut eviter que les barrieres du monde des vivants et des esprits se brisent, entrainant alors l'Empire a sa perte."

D'Obsidienne et de Sang (Les Chroniques Azteques #1)

An epic murder mystery set on the crumbling streets of a Paris torn apart by a magical war . . .
'Lyrical, sophisticated, lush, suspenseful' Ken Liu
Paris in the aftermath of the Great Magicians War. Its streets are lined with haunted ruins, Notre-Dame is a burnt-out shell, and the Seine runs black, thick with ashes and rubble. Yet life continues among the wreckage. The citizens retain their irrepressible appetite for novelty and distraction, and The Great Houses still vie for dominion over France's once grand capital.
House Silverspires, previously the leader of those power games, now lies in disarray. Its magic is ailing; its founder, Morningstar, has been missing for decades; and now something from the shadows stalks its people inside their very own walls.
Within the House, three very different people must come together: a naive but powerful Fallen, an alchemist with a self-destructive addiction, and a resentful young man wielding spells from the Far East. They may be Silverspires' salvation; or the architects of its last, irreversible fall . . .
Readers can't put down The House of Shattered Wings:

The House of Shattered Wings

"They change their sky, not their soul, who rush across the sea." - HoraceTwelve stories and two poems of power and powerlessness, of tragedy, of courage, of loss, of love, of regret and of never looking back, of transition and transcendence. Twelve tales and two poems about things that people fight to take with them when forced to run, and about things they never forgive themselves for leaving behind. From fantasy worlds of merfolk and witches to almost-real worlds of people who are nearly just like us, these are stories to touch everyone's heart... and a book which will go on to help those who are living similar stories every day.
