Dr. Julian McQuillen wants revenge. He spent years helping Charles Babbage perfect the Difference Engine, only to watch the British Crown seize his life's work. Now he's taken it back-and wrapped it in thirty tons of bronze fury. His mechanical colossus doesn't just walk through London. It erases it. Street by street. Building by building. Life by life.
Jason Thessel wants revenge as well: from Queen Victoria, who imprisoned him for treason. She'll restore everything she took from him-title, fortune, future-if he can recover the Engine before England becomes a memory written in rubble and ash.
But Jason can't do it alone.Meet the crew of the Aero:
Dorian Paulus - Decorated war hero with blood on his hands
Abner & Myron Quigley - The demolition experts who answered injustice with fire
Gabriel Benham - Steals from London's elite to feed its forgotten poor
Ada Millbanke - Engineering prodigy carrying her great-grandmother Ada Lovelace's torch into a world that doesn't trust women with machines
They're criminals, outcasts, and broken souls. They're also England's last hope.
THE MISSION: Stop McQuillen before he reduces civilization to calculation and ash.
THE COST: Everything.
Your airship awaits. Climb aboard.
