Slave of the Sky Captain (Legacy of the Archons Book 1)

Slave of the Sky Captain (Legacy of the Archons Book 1)

Generations ago, the Shroud fell beyond the Last City of Man.
Now as the Riftingwar rages, the Gloaming Twilight once again settles across an accursed world.

In the distant wilds of CÃ¦stre, reality itself is unraveling and horrific abominations stalk the land. The nations of man stand against them but it is a hopeless cause.

Distant from the front, Ysabel never worried about much- except the bloodstorms that plagued her home and the abominations that dwelt within them. Fortunately for her, her father was a man who always had a secret plan. In this case, his plan was to gamble until he made enough money to steal them both away to the distant city of Teredon, the Last City of Man. There they would be safe from the gloaming darkness.

Sometimes, plans go awry.

After making an impossible choice to sacrifice herself, Ysabel is carted away to be sold into a lifetime of servitude. She despairs, understanding the rest of her life may be spent as a slave for savage sky pirates and it seems as if there's nothing she can do.

But this is just the beginning. The world is far stranger than Ysabel has guessed and her new owner, the enigmatic Captain Argent, has unexpected designs. He holds secrets that can save their benighted world, requiring that she become a living component in an alchemy that is older than recorded history.

When worshipers of ancient and faceless powers realize what Captain Argent plans, they execute a devastating attack and steal Ysabel away. Soon she is alone in the deep-ruins of her city, surrounded on all sides by tainted and mad cultists bent on mass destruction.

It seems as if she may never leave the city alive...

A Myriad of Worlds...
This story is only one of the many paths into our bent and Irrational worlds, one which has others forthcoming. Here we begin a steampunk adventure that will stretch across a broken, archaic city, unveiling an ancient technology which may be the only hope against the Shroud and its fell servitors.

This tale is a flicker of light in the darkness.

This is one of many strands in The Paean of Sundered Dreams, a multi-genre, universe-spanning array of tales with Lovecraftian themes. Some of the strands of this work are science fiction, some fantasy, and some steampunk, but they share the same horrific universe. They weft and weave together, each leaving breadcrumbs of clues for the next story. Each tale echoes a beating heart of darkness, cackling quietly in the shadows of existence.

If you are the kind of reader who cannot rest until every secret is found, for whom genre is unimportant, and who will travel a wide and vast multiverse to learn things man was not meant to knowâ€¦

Welcome, wayward wanderer.
