Nick Wong is a magician, a master at the art of deception; but who strangely hates lying to his betters. Who happen to women. He lives in a world where men are second class citizens; relegated to living in small apartments and low paying jobs and are referred to as Mankey’s.

When World’s End by Mitchell was released, I’ll admit I actually shed more than a few tears. It was the end of an era; an end to the wonderfully crafted Holdfast family. Or so I thought. Turns out, I was wrong – and never have I ever been so happy to admit that. Serpent Dominion is the first book in Mitchell’s new series, and believe me, it’s a stunning opener filled with battles, betrayal and beasts. There’s intrigue, racial conflict and a complicated political system in the world of Athumia that’s bubbling over with magic, power and greed. As ever in Mitchell’s books, before the story begins the reader is given a brief history of that world and a succinct explanation of the hierarchy – which helps the reader begin to understand the structure of the world we’re about to enter.
