Rebecca Kuang Book order (chronological)

Fantastická cesta do pekla, plná rivality a vykoupení, od autorky bestselleru Babylon. Postgraduantka Alice Lawová měla odjakživa jen jediný cíl: vyniknout v oboru analytické magie nade všechny ostatní. Obětovala tomu všechno, svou sebeúctu, zdraví, milostný život a hlavně příčetnost. Jenže jediný člověk, který jí tento sen může splnit, největší mág na světě, je mrtvý a navíc — k její smůle — v pekle. Alice se za ním vydává spolu se svým úhlavním akademickým sokem Peterem Murdochem. Ovšem peklo je jiné, než tvrdí filozofové, vládnou zde pravidla postavená na hlavu, a pokud se z něj má Alice dostat živá, budou muset s Peterem táhnout za jeden provaz. Tedy pokud vůbec dokážou najít společnou řeč. Podaří se jim to, nebo se při tom pozabíjejí?
