City Infernal

When her twin sister commits suicide, Cassie discovers that she has the power to travel to Hell, a fiery city filled with skyscrapers, busy streets, evil, and violence, and journeys to this dark metropolis to save her sister, encountering sights that will haunt her forever. Original.

From the Publisher

Edward Lee offers a very new look at the very old concept of Hell. An occult fluke grants lonely Goth girl Cassie the harrowing ability to enter Hell as a living person. But to her surprise, the Abyss is not the barren fire-and-brimstone landscape she expects. It’s a ghastly metropolis fueled by pure evil, where sorcery replaces science and sheer horror reigns over a population of fallen angels, demons, crossbreeds, and the human damned.

From the Back Cover

LET EDWARD LEE TAKE YOUR ON A TOUR...OF HELL! Hell is a city. It s called the Mephistopolis. Forget the old-fashioned sulphur pit you may have read about. Over the millennia, Hell has evolved into a bustling metropolis with looming skyscrapers, crowded streets, systemitized evil, and atrocity as status quo. Cassie thought she knew all about Hell. But when her twin sister, Lissa, committed suicide, Cassie found that she was able to travel to the real thing the city itself. Now, even though she s still alive, Cassie is heading straight to Hell to find Lissa. And the sights she sees as she walks among the damned will never be in any tourist book. WELCOME TO HELL.
