商品簡介
1851. London, England. Once a well-known prize-fighter with a terrifying right fist (known as The Hammer of Heaven”), Daniel O’Thunder has seen the light, and now the protection of the poor and the weak is his life’s work. He runs an establishment for those in need of food, shelter and counsela place where virtue and vice rub shoulders uneasily.
But an ancient evil is stalking the streets, preying on the vulnerable souls it finds there. It is an evil that takes different forms and hides behind many faces, threatening everything Daniel loves most. Driven to desperation, Daniel responds by issuing a breath-taking challenge to the Devil himself.
Daniel O'Thunder is surrounded by an eclectic collection of allies and adversaries who tell his story with varying degrees of reliability: Jack, a spectacularly failed cleric and worse actor; ”Jaunty”, one-time recruiting sergeant, shady small-time operator and O’Thunder’s self-styled best friend; and Nell, the spirited, foul-mouthed young prostitute with a heart of gold.
Rich in humour and memorable characters, Daniel O’Thunder is a rollicking literary thriller set in the teeming slums of Dickensian London. Fast-paced and gripping, comic and tragic by turns, it is a spectacular fiction debut.
