When his master suddenly relieves him of his post, along with a hundred other men and women, Cormac is furnished with documents to free him from bondage but given no means to survive.\u003cbr\u003eSomewhere between slave and citizen, the freedom to live is the freedom to starve too. All that was once orderly, structured and routine is now chaos, and Cormac must learn life anew.\u003cbr\u003eHis writing skills have afforded him flickers of opportunity in a world far wealthier than his, but will he resist the pull of the city's underbelly? Can he untangle himself from its crimes?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"book-contributors\"\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"contributor-item\"\u003e\n    \u003cspan class=\"contributor-role\"\u003eAuthor\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003ca href=\"\/search?q=Author+Conn+Iggulden\" class=\"contributor-link\"\u003eConn Iggulden\u003c\/a\u003e\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Conn Iggulden","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47381084373155,"sku":"9780241689561","price":395.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0741\/7836\/3555\/files\/img_9780241689561_1c89a443-b149-4053-972e-4431087d1225.jpg?v=1776468259","url":"https:\/\/graffitibooks.co.za\/products\/9780241689561","provider":"Graffiti Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
