{"product_id":"2940150684843","title":"Construct","description":"\u003cem\u003e\"Matthews' vivid description, brisk pacing, and page-turning mystery hooked me from the first page. The haunted construct Samuel is as fine an example of a compelling fantasy character as I could hope to find. \u003c\/em\u003eCONSTRUCT\u003cem\u003e is a delight!\"\u003c\/em\u003e - Cullen Bunn, writer of \u003cem\u003eThe Sixth Gun\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe essence of every construct resides in their core. A fist-sized stone, carefully saturated with \u003cem\u003ekhet\u003c\/em\u003e, mounted in a walking shell – the vessel through which experience will shape them. Wipe a construct’s core – strip all that away – and what’s left?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt’s a quandary that now haunts Samuel’s every step. Hundreds of years of life – the chronicle of his experience – taken from him. All that he once was, replaced by visions of a gruesome murder, the piercing silver eyes of a ruthless hunter, and premonitions of his own destruction. All of it punctuated by the one thing that no construct is supposed to be capable of: emotion.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRelentlessly pursued and adrift in a world that sees constructs as little more than property, Samuel now faces the hardest challenge of all – knowing who to trust.","brand":"Luke Matthews","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47167001231600,"sku":"2940150684843","price":3.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940150684843_p0.jpg?v=1763751107","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940150684843","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
