Year of the Black Rainbow - The Novel: NOVEL Year of the Black Rainbow Written by Claudio Sanchez and Peter David. Hardcover, 352 pages. English.
Welcome to the world of Heaven's Fence, where a lattice of mysterious energy known as the Keywork binds and sustains life on a triangular network of planets--from the bleak and hellish Howling Earth to the spare beauty of Bendelesh. Beneath the Keywork's glow, under the governance of the twelve grey-skinned Mages and the watchful gaze of the winged Prise, humanity goes about its daily life unaffected by the goings-on of the higher powers at work in the universe. Until the day when the ambitious Wilhelm Ryan, newest member to the brotherhood of Mages, acts on his growing discontent at being branded another ordinary Mage, ruling over one lowly Sector. Shrewd, and silver-tongued, Ryan launches the Mage Wars: a devastating campaign to win control of the entire Fence and take on the legendary mantle of Supreme Tri-Mage, a position likened to God himself.
A companion piece to the album of the same name by the music group Coheed and Cambria, written by the band's leader Claudio Sanchez, along with best-selling author Peter David, Year of the Black Rainbow is a powerful introduction to a fascinating world, by turns thoughtful and funny, heartbreaking and pulse-pounding.

Beneath the Keywork's glow, under the governance of the twelve grey-skinned Mages and the watchful gaze of the winged Prise, humanity goes about its daily life unaffected by the goings-on of the higher powers at work in the universe. Until the day when the ambitious Wilhelm Ryan, newest member to the brotherhood of Mages, acts on his growing discontent at being branded another ordinary Mage, ruling over one lowly Sector. Shrewd, and silver-tongued, Ryan launches the Mage Wars: a devastating campaign to win control of the entire Fence and take on the legendary mantle of Supreme Tri-Mage, a position likened to God himself.
A companion piece to the album of the same name by the music group Coheed and Cambria, written by the band's leader Claudio Sanchez, along with best-selling author Peter David, Year of the Black Rainbow is a powerful introduction to a fascinating world, by turns thoughtful and funny, heartbreaking and pulse-pounding. This journey into Heaven's Fence will be welcomed by longtime fans and newcomers alike.
