Streets Running Like a River - E-book - ePub

I got off the plane at Venettia with two swords... In a world of the global "Iron Honeycomb" all countries are isolated from others behind impenetrable geopolitical walls.... All international travel is strictly controlled or forbidden. All firearms and long-distance weapons have been replaced with intimate hand-to-hand combat and cold steel, reminiscent of Shakespeare's Verona. In this story set in the cruel world of Pantheon, an aging, disillusioned master swordswoman coming home from a special foreign assignment returns to the old Venice of her birth and the dissipated noble House she is sworn to protect.
