SILVER BLOOD
The year is 1348, and a dying world is about to be offered a beautiful, terrifying lie.
As the Black Death ravages the mountains of France, the monks of the secluded Abbey of Saint-Lazare discover a miracle in the ice: a fallen star that promises an end to all suffering. They call it the Silver Blood-a celestial infection that replaces the messy, agonizing rot of the plague with the cold, unbreaking perfection of geometry and light.
Elian, a disgraced cunning man turned novice monk, knows the scent of death better than anyone. But the scent coming from the Abbey's cloisters is not the sweet rot of the plague; it is the sterile, electric smell of ozone and old honey. He watches in horror as his brothers are unmade, their bones becoming glass and their blood turning to mercury, as they tune themselves to the silent, starving music of the stars.
To save the Red World of mud, grief, and mortal life, Elian must embrace the Black. Armed with the forgotten weight of meteoric iron and the ancient silence of sea-salt, he begins a desperate journey from the lightless trenches of the Mediterranean to the glass spires of a transformed Prague.
In a battle between the sterile noon of the heavens and the heavy midnight of the deep earth, Elian must prove that the only true mercy is the weight of the dirt and the grace of the rot.
The stars are no longer watching. They are feeding.
