Beyond hell

<p>Wellington. The wind city. New Zealand’s home of art and culture, but darker forces, forgotten forces, are starting to reappear. Aotearoa’s displaced iwi atua – the patupaiarehe, taniwha, and ponaturi of legend – have decided to make Wellington their home, and while some have come looking for love, others have arrived in search of blood. A war is coming, and few can stand in their way. Saint (lovably fearless, temporarily destitute, currently unable to find a shirt) may be our only hope. Tony, suddenly unemployed and potentially a taniwha herself, has little choice but to accept the role her bloodline dictates. And Hinewai, who fell with the rain? If she can’t find her one true love, there’s a good chance that none will live to see the morning. Wellington will never be the same again. “The Wind City is a startling debut novel for a nineteen-year-old writer. More to the point, this is a startling novel for a writer of any age, at any stage of their career: first book or tenth.” – James Guthrie, Wellingtonista “A rollicking contemporary fairy tale set within an instantly recognisable Wellington. It’s whimsical, fast-paced, and packed with a cast of wise-cracking atua who could talk the leg off of Matt Smith’s Dr Who.” – Sarah Dunn “Wise-cracking main characters... a keen sense of humour... this book makes an excellent start to what will, no doubt, be an illustrious writing career.” – SFFANZ Reviews “The Wind City will be remembered for more than just its cast of outlandish otherworldly identities... [it is a] well-researched expose on the creatures of Maori folklore, a hitherto largely-unexplored subject in our history of modern-day storytelling.” – Waikato Times “A whirlwind tour of Wellington that will change the way you see the capital city forever... Summer Wigmore has captured the heart of Wellington, and the soul too.” – Beattie’s Book Blog</p>
