Some lies are hidden in plain sight...
Honestly, dark fantasy doesn't really get better than this... SFFInsiders
With the Veil Dragon, Nathair, seemingly under the Spirit Captain's control, Laoch pushes away the grief of his first encounter with the metal beast and hunts for a weapon his new and distrusted ally insists they can use against the coming Constructor invasion.
While he scours the abandoned city of their soul-eating foe, Brandshold's Queen prepares for the coming war. Now a major player in the Overseer's deception of her people, she struggles under the burden of guilt, turning to the last person in her life she wanted to depend on.
And the Unspoken rises on the wings of her artifice dragon, spreading fear and burning all before her. In her wake, the people turn to the Seven Houses for solace, and their grip upon the realm tightens in preparation for the true enemy.
For an Emperor consumed by revenge has a new artifice, one that hungers to enslave and feed upon all that worship the Seven.
For cast in brass and spiritfire ... the Kraken soulship rises.
Between smoking dilapidated cities, soul-infused mechanical constructs, resurrecting necromancers and wyrms wandering through the realms-this book conjures a dark ambiance that is largely unmatched by anything else I have read. SFF Insiders
A work of coal-dark fantasy that is continually surprising, provocative, and compulsively entertaining. Self-Publishing Review, ★★★★1/2
For lovers of Michael Moorcock's Elric, Andy Peloquin's Darkblade series and the malice of Gwynne and Abercrombie, A City of Ashes is the second book in the dark and epic Warriors of Spirit and Bone series.
