Knave of Spades
Tony Lee
Pick a card... Pick a side... Ryder Waites thought amnesia from a childhood accident was his biggest problem. Then a fallen angel tried to kill him on the London Underground. Now he's dodging assassins while uncovering an impossible truth: he's the heir to the Royal Court of Spades, part of one of the most powerful magical organisations in existence. But someone murdered his mother - the Queen of Spades - before she could restore his missing memories... and powers. With only a mysterious protégé, his mother's childhood best friend, a magical, sarcastic spaniel and a grudge-bearing exile at his side, Ryder must travel to New York, and navigate a lethal shadow war where Tarot Queens command armies, Noble Fae deal in deadly bargains, and Immortal Jokers play games with mortal lives. But as the barrier between our world and a ruthless Faerie dimension cracks, an enemy who knows his every forgotten secret is dealing the final cards. His mother's murder was just the opening hand... The first book in the pulse-pounding Playing Card War series by #1 New York Times bestselling author Tony Lee (Doctor Who, X-Men), Knave Of Spades is perfect for fans of Jim Butcher's Dresden Files, Ben Aaronovitch's Rivers of London, the Faerie courts of Holly Black, Roger Zelazny's Amber Chronicles, and Sarah J. Maas's A Court of Thorns and Roses, among others.
