Acerca de este título

Rivers of London meets A Master of Djinn in this warm-hearted, action-packed urban fantasy debut full of workplace found family, queer romance and supernatural creatures straight out of Southeast Asian lore.

In the sunny city of Singapore, the government takes care of everything - even the weird stuff.

Benjamin Toh is an overworked and underpaid middle manager in a government department tasked with keeping the supernatural population of Singapore happy and out of sight.

But when an entire housing estate glitches out of existence on what was meant to be a routine check-in, Ben has to scramble to keep things under control and stop the rest of the city from following in its wake. He may not have the budget or the bandwidth, but he has the best - if highly irregular - team to help him. Together, they'll traverse secret shadow markets, scale skyscrapers, and maybe even go to the stars, all so they can just do their goddamn job.

'Heartfelt and laugh out loud, City of Others is urban fantasy as you've never seen it before . . . I smiled my way through this entire book. An absolute breath of fresh air'
Eliza Chan, author of Fathomfolk

'I absolutely loved this book - couldn't tear myself away from it. A delightful and engrossing read, with a knowing wink to best office practices. Loved it'
Genevieve Cogman, author of The Invisible Library

'Full of wonder, tenderness and breathtaking adventure, City of Others is a fresh and captivating fantasy that will grow roots in your heart'
Kylie Lee Baker, Sunday Times bestselling author of Bat Eater

'Full of action and heart and wonder, this book is an absolute delight!' Melissa Caruso, author of The Last Hour Between Worlds

'City of Others delights and charms with a ragtag group of magical bureaucrats doing their best to save an entire city from being dragged out of reality. Poon seamlessly blends action, magic, romance and the tight bonds of an understaffed workplace that truly believes in the good they're doing'
Andrea Stewart, author of The Bone Shard Daughter

City of Others is a wickedly funny take on paranormal government bureaucracy that interlaces world-drowning stakes with incisive social commentary, extremely mandatory corporate team-building, and a ghost cat that refuses to be exorcised. Warm-hearted and delightful (P. H. Low, Locus-, Ignyte- and Rhysling-nominated author of THESE DEATHLESS SHORES)
From undead ducklings to prowling wyverns and market-going jiangshi, City of Others is an absolutely delightful mythological smorgasbord bursting with wit, humour and a cast of vibrant characters that warmed my heart.
