If you see a price sticker on a book, please ignore it. Removing stickers from a book may damage it, so we refrain from doing so. Cornish's tale of scolds, scourges, smugglers and shrewds will thrill and captivate, and leave the reader desperate for more.Īll of our books are second hand, and while you may not get the exact copy shown in the picture, all of our books are in very good condition. Stunning in scope and rich in detail, alive with memorable heroes and villains and brimming with new and original science and magics, D.M. And all Rossamund carries with him is a battered almanac and a pocketful of cheap potions. Only monster-hunters, leers and the most desperate of brigands dare travel the inland ways unguarded. Such a road is not for the faint of heart. He is being sent to train as a Lamplighter - to bring light to the inland roads of the Half-Continent, to shine the way for travellers through lands peopled by outcasts, monsters and worse.īut for Rossamund to begin his education, he must first undertake a journey of his own: to the great city of High Vesting. Before reaching the lamplighting destination, Rossamünd leaps off a boat.

Rather than sailing or slaying monsters (as he desires), he’ll light and douse highway lamps. But fate has chosen him for a different path. Rossamünd, a boy with a girl’s name and an unknown past, is sent from his foundlingery to earn his living as a lamplighter. Rossamund has always dreamed of a career in the Navy, fighting tentacled monsters and rescuing damsels from hook-handed pirates.
