Synopsis

Europe is crumbling. The Xian Flu pandemic and ongoing economic crises have fractured the European Union, the borderless Continent of the Schengen Agreement is a distant memory, and new nations are springing up everywhere, some literally overnight. For an intelligence officer like Jim, it's a nightmare. Every week or so a friendly power spawns, a new and unknown national entity which may or may not be friendly to England's interests; it's hard to keep on top of it all. But things are about to get worse for Jim. A stabbing on a London bus pitches him into a world where his intelligence service is preparing for war with another universe, and a man has come who may hold the key to unlocking the mystery.

Book Overview: Pitch-perfect, bursting with the same charisma and intricate world-building as its predecessor... Europe at Midnight is high-powered fiction of the cleverest sort. -- LA Review of Books Hutchinson writes wonderfully, his prose animated not just by a keen eye for character, but by a blackly witty sense of humor, qualities that make Europe at Midnight both darkly entertaining and disturbingly timely. --Locus Wonderful as Europe in Autumn was, I believe book two might be better yet... It's funny, fantastical, readable and remarkable. --Tor.com Mind expanding, accessible yet deeply layered fiction that matches anything those Pulitzer, Man-Booker or Hugo awards winners could offer. -- SF Book Reviews
