The Trials of Koli

'ENTHRALLING . . . A JOURNEY AS PERILOUS AS IT IS ENLIGHTENING' Guardian on The Book of Koli

The Trials of Koli is the second novel in M R. Carey's breathtakingly original Rampart trilogy, set in a strange and deadly world of our own making.

The villages of Koli's world are dying. But Koli heard a story once. A story about lost London, and the mysterious tech of the Old Times it contains. It lies somewhere beyond the miles of deadly forest - and if Koli can survive the journey to get there, it may just be the key to saving humanity.
