Fleeing the ghosts of their violent past, two former revolutionaries - the roguish, rakish Gwynn and the taciturn Raule - escape from the ruined and desert Copper Country to the tropical city of Ashamoil. As they salvage new lives from the rubble of the old, they discover that the ghosts of the past are also the ghosts of the future.
"A brilliant first novel, with a fascinating, inventive setting ... THE ETCHED CITY is a wondrous book, far more ambitious and well-crafted than most first novels" PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
