Synopsis:
"Since time immemorial, the Spires have sheltered humanity, towering for
miles over the mist-shrouded surface of the world. Within their halls,
aristocratic houses have ruled for generations, developing scientific
marvels, fostering trade alliances, and building fleets of airships to
keep the peace.
Captain Grimm commands the merchant ship, Predator.
Fiercely loyal to Spire Albion, he has taken their side in the cold war
with Spire Aurora, disrupting the enemy’s shipping lines by attacking
their cargo vessels. But when the Predator is severely damaged in
combat, leaving captain and crew grounded, Grimm is offered a
proposition from the Spirearch of Albion—to join a team of agents on a
vital mission in exchange for fully restoring Predator to its fighting glory.
And even as Grimm undertakes this dangerous task, he will learn that
the conflict between the Spires is merely a premonition of things to
come. Humanity’s ancient enemy, silent for more than ten thousand years,
has begun to stir once more. And death will follow in its wake..."
(Debut novel)
Synopsis:
"Her name was Kimbralin Amaristoth: sister to a cruel brother,
daughter of a hateful family. But that name she has forsworn, and now
she is simply Lin, a musician and lyricist of uncommon ability in a land
where women are forbidden to answer such callings-a fugitive who must
conceal her identity or risk imprisonment and even death.On the eve of a great festival, Lin learns that an ancient scourge has returned to the land of Eivar, a pandemic both deadly and unnatural. Its resurgence brings with it the memory of an apocalypse that transformed half a continent. Long ago, magic was everywhere, rising from artistic expression-from song, from verse, from stories. But in Eivar, where poets once wove enchantments from their words and harps, the power was lost. Forbidden experiments in blood divination unleashed the plague that is remembered as the Red Death, killing thousands before it was stopped, and Eivar's connection to the Otherworld from which all enchantment flowed, broken.
The Red Death's return can mean only one thing: someone is spilling innocent blood in order to master dark magic. Now poets who thought only to gain fame for their songs face a challenge much greater: galvanized by Valanir Ocune, greatest Seer of the age, Lin and several others set out to reclaim their legacy and reopen the way to the Otherworld-a quest that will test their deepest desires, imperil their lives, and decide the future."
