The return of the renowned shared-world superhero series created and edited by George R. R. Martin, author of A Song of Ice and Fire, brings the Wild Cards universe back to life. Following World War II, a devastating alien virus altered the Earth's population. Survivors became Jokers, marked by strange deformities, while others, known as Aces, gained superhuman powers. Now, the virus has reached Britain, where Queen Margaret presides over a realm inhabited by legendary figures like Herne the Hunter and Spring-heeled Jack. Her Prime Minister, Sir Winston Churchill, endowed with extraordinary longevity, collaborates with the Enigma ace Alan Turing to form the Order of the Silver Helix. They must gather all the wild cards available to confront the alarming mutations caused by the virus. This installment, the first Wild Cards novel set in the UK, serves as an ideal entry point for newcomers to the series. It features a remarkable collection of original stories from celebrated authors in science fiction and fantasy, including Paul Cornell, Marko Kloos, Mark Lawrence, and others, ensuring an engaging experience for both new and returning readers.
