M. R. Carey
'SPARKS WITH WONDER AND PERIL' Melissa Caruso, author of The Last Hour Between Worlds
Prepare to be entranced by this utterly unique dark fantasy with a fairytale feel from the million-copy bestselling M. R. Carey, author of The Girl With All the Gifts.
In a kingdom forgotten by history, a legend unfolds . . .
Wounded in his country's endless wars, former soldier Mag Tresti finds work in the home of a reclusive widow, Jannae Mirchella. But Jannae is more than she seems. A witch of great skill and might, she hides her powers and her deep-laid plans behind a mask of harmless respectability.
When a dead demon falls out of the sky, the fates of the soldier and the witch are irrevocably intertwined. On the demon's body Mag finds a tinderbox - an artefact of terrifying magical power that can not only grant his every wish, but also change the fate of nations.
This is a tale of spellcraft and devilry, of witchcraft and trickery - of the wickedness that resides within a few, the goodness that lies deep within us all, and the choices on which our lives turn.
Discover this dark and enchanting fantasy tale from one of the most original voices in speculative fiction - perfect for fans of Spinning Silver by Naomi Novik, The Bear and the Nightingale by Katherine Arden and A Sorcerer Comes to Call by T. Kingfisher.
Praise for The Tinder Box:
'Carey's craft manages to feel at once familiar and startling, which for me is a hallmark of exceptional writing . . . Confirms M.R. Carey's place among the best living writers in fantasy' Christopher Buehlman, author of Between Two Fires and The Blacktongue Thief
'The Tinder Box sparks with wonder and peril . . . It holds all the magic of a fable and all the complex kindness and cruelty of a human heart. Prepare to be enchanted!' Melissa Caruso, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Last Hour Between Worlds
'Witty, crisp, sharp and tender in all the right places. Exactly on the border between gunpowder and fairy tale. You'll find yourself missing these big characters after they're gone' Paul Cornell, Hugo Award-winning novelist and screenwriter
'In a grey age of violence and greed, Carey's tale strikes a spark of kindness, humanity, and hope' Marie Brennan, author of A Natural History of Dragons
'Carey masters yet another subgenre of speculative fiction' Kirkus
'Fantasy fans - especially of Joe Abercrombie's The Devils - will love Carey's updated version of the Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale' Booklist (starred review)©2026 Mike Carey (P)2026 Little, Brown Book Group Limited

Reseñas de la crítica
A fascinating window onto a dangerous and multifaceted universe (Adrian Tchaikovsky, author of CHILDREN OF TIME)
A genuine treat for SF fans: an epic multiverse tale that moves like a thriller
[A] brilliant dimension-hopping sci-fi thriller . . . readers will be wowed
Infinity Gate is a powerful exploration of the near-future, skilfully and seamlessly weaving different realities and different iterations of AI . . . Carey has the experience, imagination and verve to pull it off. A compelling entry and a must-read! (Tade Thompson, Arthur C. Clarke Award-winning author of ROSEWATER)
Humane, thoughtful and exciting, Mike Carey reaffirms his place in the ranks of SF with this startlingly good novel (Paul Cornell)
Infinity Gate, with its in-depth science and rich characterization, is a must-read for SF fans, as Carey's story crosses the militarism of an anthropomorphic Starship Troopers with Terry Pratchett and Stephen Baxter's Long Earth series while waging a war against Stargate's replicators.
A dazzling speculation on the many ways our world could have evolved, layered inside a thriller that will make your eardrums vibrate. M.R. Carey reveals the human (and non-human) cost extracted by the crumbling aspirations of a multiverse empire. I was charmed, disturbed, and fascinated by turns - and I couldn't put this book down (Annalee Newitz, author of AUTONOMOUS and THE TERRAFORMERS)
M.R. Carey is a master of imagination and suspense (Gareth L. Powell, author of EMBERS OF WAR)
This is gripping, unrelenting, and absolutely unique. Carey is working at the absolute top of his game, and I cannot wait to see where this story goes next! They say there's nothing new under the sun. Well, M. R. Carey heard this and invented a whole new sun to put new things under. Absolutely brilliant. Top-notch science fiction, thrilling and thoughtful at the same time. (Seanan McGuire, NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author)
