About this book

The city of Veridon is one built of machinery; the city is built on technology which often floats down the river, with the pieces being salvaged. The city itself cannot be re-created as the technologies are only borrowed from what floats down the river. A great expedition was launched to find what lay up the river, but nothing has returned, until now - a single cog on a zepliner that falls from the sky. Only, something has followed the cog back. This book is a fantastic blend of a few genres: steampunk, urban fantasy, and crime-noir. The pages are packed with haunting imagery, surrounded by a compelling plot that keeps you turning the pages. It takes a while for the plot to get going (and for the reader to understand how everything fits together into this new world), but once it does, it’s a gripping ride.
