Gilded Cage by Vic James is the second book that I bought at Dutch Comic Con earlier this year to have it signed. My personal jail is my body, with the chronic pain restricting what I can do. Have you ever had the feeling you lost your freedom? Either as a teenager when your parents didn’t allow you to go to that one party you really needed to be? Or maybe you’ve done something you shouldn’t have and ended up in jail, for the night or longer? Not all jails, or caged, are made of metal and brick though. They will all discover whether any magic is more powerful than the human spirit. But their destinies entwine when one family enters the service of the other. The families have only one thing in common: Each has three children. In its glittering milieu move the all-powerful Jardines and the everyday Hadleys. This is the darkly decadent world of Gilded Cage. Do them young, and you’ll never get over them. Do those years when you’re old, and you’ll never get through them. If you’re not one of the ultimate one-percenters-the magical elite-you owe them ten years of service. In modern-day Britain, magic users control everything: wealth, politics, power-and you.
