Fantasy Steampunk
As China prepares to become the ultimate power in an era of extraordinary invention and horror, Alice Michaelsβ fate lies inside the walls of the forbidden kingdomβ¦. Gavin Ennock has everything a man could desireβexcept time. As the clockwork plague consumes his body and mind, it drives him increasingly mad and fractures his relationship with his fiancΓ©e, Alice, Lady Michaels. Their only hope is that the Dragon Men of China can cure him. But a power-mad general has seized the Chinese throne in a determined offensive to conquer Asia, Britainβindeed, the entire world. He has closed the countryβs borders to all foreigners. The former ruling dynasty, however, is scheming to return the rightful heir to power. Their designs will draw Gavin and Alice down a treacherous path strewn with intrigue and power struggles. One wrong step will seal Gavinβs fateβ¦and determine the future of the world.
