A tangled, mangled junction of train lines, roads and waterways. Where minor celebrities hang out with minor criminals and where tourists and moody teenagers mingle. @19@@16@@18@In the heart of Camden, where rail meets road meets leyline, you might find the Arcana Emporium, run by one Alex Verus. He won’t sell you a wand or mix you a potion, but if you know what you’re looking for, he might just be able to help. That’s if he’s not too busy avoiding his would-be apprentice, foiling the Dark, outwitting the Light, and investigating a mysterious relic that has just turned up at the British Museum.@19@@3@@2@The books in the Alex Verus series are as follows:@16@@18@Fated@19@@16@@18@Cursed@19@@16@@18@Taken@19@@16@@18@Chosen@19@@16@@18@Hidden@19@@16@@18@Veiled@19@@16@@18@Burned@19@@16@@18@Bound@19@@16@@18@Marked@19@@3@
