City of Lost Dreams<br />

A Novel<br />

Magnus Flyte<br />

In this action-packed sequel to City of Dark Magic, we find<br />

musicologist Sarah Weston in Vienna in search of a cure for<br />

her friend Pollina, who is now gravely ill and may not have<br />

much time. Meanwhile, Nicolas Pertusato, in London in<br />

search of an ancient alchemical cure for the girl, discovers<br />

an old enemy is one step ahead of him. In Prague, Prince<br />

Max tries to unravel the strange reappearance of a long<br />

dead saint while being pursued by a seductive red-headed<br />

historian with dark motives of her own.<br />

In the city of Beethoven, Mozart, and Freud, Sarah<br />

becomes the target in a deadly web of intrigue that involves<br />

a scientist on the run, stolen art, seductive pastries, a few<br />

surprises from long-dead alchemists, a distractingly attractive<br />

horseman who’s more than a little bloodthirsty, and a<br />

trail of secrets and lies. But nothing will be more dangerous<br />

than the brilliant and vindictive villain who seeks to bend<br />

time itself. Sarah must travel deep into an ancient mystery<br />

to save the people she loves.<br />

Magnus flyte is a pseudonym for the<br />

writing duo of Meg Howrey and Christina Lynch.<br />

Dance and Blind Sight. She lives in Los Angeles.<br />

Lynch, who lives near Sequoia National Park,<br />

Praise for City of Dark Magic:<br />

“ An entertaining mix of magic,<br />

mystery and romance, it’s one of the<br />

most original novels released this year.”<br />

—CNN.com<br />

“ Howrey and Lynch have succeeded in<br />

capturing the essence of the world’s most<br />

gloriously emo city. . . . City of Dark Magic<br />

never fails to shimmer exotically,<br />

erotically, on the page.”<br />

—The Slate Book Re<strong>view</strong><br />

“ A comical, rollicking, and sexy<br />

thriller.” —The Huffington Post<br />

“ This deliciously madcap novel<br />

has it all: murder in Prague, time travel,<br />

a misanthropic Beethoven, tantric sex, and<br />

a dwarf with attitude. I salute you, Magnus<br />

Flyte!” —Conan O’Brien<br />
