Book Talk:New London is a land of waste and ruin following the war. Scienta is on the edge of a wilderness, where a battle between the forces of dark and light is waging, and will engulf everyone who lies in it's path.
Since the last war, Syrus has been working as a Tinker, attempting to continue to run the machines that power the city in which he lives. Empress Olivia struggles as the leader of the new regime, attempting to balance the new world order of equality between humans and elementals.
However, rebellion has reared it's ugly head, and Olivia and Syrus have been thrust into the middle of battle once again.
While on a trip across town, Olivia has been attacked by a Xiren, and her life hangs in the balance, awaiting the intervention of a Master Tinker. In the same battle in which Olivia was captured, Syrus was taken hostage by the Xiren.
Imagine Syrus' horror when he discovers that the Xiren have captured his family and turned them into monster hybrids, a cross between humans and the horrible Xiren/ spider people. They need the expertise of a Master Tinker to help them achieve their goals of taking over and wresting rule away from the Empress.
Nothing, no, nothing, will keep the Xiren from achieving their goal. And they are above nothing in the pursuit of their goals.
Without a Master Tinker, the city is falling apart, and Olivia's life hangs in the balance.
Will Syrus choose death over cooperation with the Xiren?
Can Olivia's life be saved?
