This collection of four linked novellas is the perfect introduction to VanderMeer’s vividly imagined world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the city of Ambergris, a would-be suitor discovers a sunlit street can become a killing ground in the blink of an eye. An artist receives an invitation to a beheading and finds himself enchanted. And a patient in a mental institution is convinced he’s imagined a city called Ambergris, invented its every last detail, and that he’s really from a place called Chicago. Ambergris is a cruelly beautiful metropolis – a haven for artists and thieves, for composers and murderers. And once there, anything can happen.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThese tales of Ambergris include the World Fantasy Award-winning novella,\u003ci\u003e The Transformation of Martin Lake\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 482g\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 198 x 131 x 44 (mm)\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781509848157\n                            \n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jeff VanderMeer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44100647420154,"sku":"9781509848157","price":9.27,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/f0615ec7bce68374d8ba31c5035110a4.jpg?v=1629947507","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/city-of-saints-and-madmen","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
