Leave it to a comic book writer to combine Cold War intrigue and a world filled with magic.
The Office of Shadows, the newest novel from writer Matthew Sturges, hits bookstores this month, and while it's set in the world of Faerie just like his first novel, Midwinter, the book has a whole new twist.
That's something readers of the comics by Sturges have come to expect. On titles like Jack of Fables, House of Mystery and JSA All-Stars, the writer combines fantasy, mystery and humor, stretching the boundaries of each genre he touches.
The Office of Shadow is no different. A mixture of intrigue and magic, the book takes one of Midwinter's more mysterious characters, Lord Silverdun, and puts him in the role of spy.

Yesterday I started reading Midwinter, so I hope to start Office soon.
