The War Of The Flowers Williams, Tad

Tad Williams takes urban fantasy to dizzying new heights in this standalone epic. When slacker musician Theo Vilmos inherits a mysterious book from his great-uncle, he's yanked from modern San Francisco into a ravaged fairyland where technology is magic and the Flower Houses wage brutal war for power. Think American Gods meets Lord of the Rings, but with a contemporary edge and Williams' signature world-building genius. It's darker and grittier than your childhood fairy tales, filled with political intrigue, dangerous beauty, and genuine surprises. Perfect for readers who love their fantasy sophisticated, their protagonists reluctant, and their faerie realms thoroughly unsettling.
