Странные существа возвращаются к жизни в Лондоне и Германии. Это Былые, ангелы, которые когда-то не смогли защитить Древо познания, и их пробуждение от вековечного сна будет иметь последствия. В Африке колониальный город Эссенвальд пребывает в хаосе, когда единственные рабочие, способные трудиться в Ворре, отнимающем разум лесу, исчезают под его сенью. Специальная команда под руководством Измаила, бывшего циклопа, отправляется на их поиски, но лес просто так не отдаст тех, кого считает своими. А в отдаленной хижине местная крестьянка находит странную девочку. Ее происхождение неизвестно, но она обладает силами, находящимися за пределами…

Nelle viscere del Vorrh nuovi e singolari accadimenti destano la preoccupazione di coloro che abitano al limitare delle sue immense vastità, e oltre. A Londra e in Germania creature indefinibili si stanno risvegliando dopo un lungo sonno popolato di sogni e incubi pronti a unirsi alla sostanza della realtà: sono gli Ancestrali, gli angeli che non sono riusciti a proteggere l’albero della conoscenza, e il loro risveglio fa sussultare il respiro dell’antica foresta. Poco lontano, la città coloniale di Essenwald è preda del caos perché i Limboia, gli unici capaci di estirpare dal Vorrh il legname capace di nutrirla, sono scomparsi nelle…

The Vorrh is a vast unmapped and very mysterious jungle in Africa. No-one comes out of it in one piece. Survivors report strange, mind-bending phenomena and horrific monsters. It is rumoured that the Garden of Eden still exists somewhere in the middle of it. In The Erstwhile it transpires that some angels have escaped Eden and the Vorrh and are living in hiding in London, some in disguise as lunatics in Bedlam, one as a mutilated dog. It's also revealed that William Blake, a character in these novels, is interacting with these angels. Good and evil angels and humans, including William Blake, are heading towards a final, Miltonic…
