The city.
(Large Print)

Johah Kirk is the son of an exceptional singer and grandson of a formidable "piano man." He is a musical prodigy beginning to explore his own gifts when he crosses a group of extremely dangerous people. Set in a more innocent time not so long ago, The City encompasses a lifetime but unfolds over three years of tribulation and triumph, in which Jonah first grasps the electrifying power of music and art, of enduring friendship, of everyday heroes. Brilliantly illumined by magic dark and light, the city is a place where enchantment and malice entwine, courage and honor are found in the most unexpected quarters, and the way forward lies buried deep inside the heart.
