Fantasy Historical
A cinematic, magical artifact hunt filled with love and high-flying action. If you enjoy historical adventure, imaginative magic systems, and new takes on the classic war story, you will love Drops of Glass. “Baldwin brings world history to life in a fantastical way. He paired reality with a pinch of magic and made it sing.” Marcus and Jane don’t belong at war. He’s a gun shy combat pilot from California looking to earn a name for himself by volunteering to fight the Kaiser. She’s an aviation mechanic out of Gloucestershire with a reputation for fixing airplanes using light to moderate witchcraft. When they found one another, they were instantly inseparable. But when strange arcane devices start appearing along the Western Front, they are brought in for a secret assignment. Soon, they’re flying all over France following shaky leads, chasing ghosts, and unearthing a magical mystery beyond their wildest imagination. Suddenly, the friendship that has always given them strength transforms into a dangerous liability, and their mysterious enemies, a group of pilots which no country claims, can sense it. This mission will challenge every aspect of their bond and force them to confront the darkest corners of their identity. In war, non-negotiables mean heartache, even when you’re flying thousands of feet above the ground. When push comes to shove, will they choose the magic, the mission, or the people that make the fight worth it? From the author of The Luella Winthrop Trilogy comes an all-new breathtaking alternate history series readers are calling “wonderful” and “poetical historical fantasy that you won’t want to put down.”
