[Phoenix Court 01] - Marked for Life

Marked For Life by Paul Magrs
Welcome to Phoenix Court! It’s a weird mix of people round here on this housing scheme, but everyone’s reasonably friendly. Everyone’s got their secrets, though, and often there’s real magic waiting just around the corner. Meet Mark Kelly–a man tattooed with glorious designs over every inch of his body. He’s married to the slightly unhinged Sam and has a young daughter who’s about to be kidnapped at Christmas by an escaped convict and old flame of our hero’s. Over one snowy festive season the whole family sets off in perilous pursuit…accompanied by Sam’s mother, who’s become a nudist lesbian and her girlfriend, who claims to be a time-transcending novelist known as Iris Wildthyme…. Magrs first volume in the Phoenix Court series is a wild adventure and a classic of contemporary fantasy.
