Pirates threaten the British Empire in an alternate history of steam-driven adventure! War crushes Europe in its iron fist. As mechanical monsters stalk the trench-scarred battlefields, a new threat emerges in the Caribbean. Major David Jones is sent on a reconnaissance mission - a task that soon becomes all too personal. Steampunk pirates meet dreadnoughts, submersibles, airships and ornithopters in this breathlessly-paced adventure. Praise for Rod Gillies' steampunk writing: "Classic adventure set-up followed by a hectic, exciting chase that doesn't let up" - Amazon UK review "Real boys own adventure, left you wanting more" - Amazon UK review "Non stop action from start to finish. Reads more as a military thriller set in a steampunk world than traditional romantic steampunk" - Amazon US review "Great twists, suspense, and lots of action" - Goodreads review "Likeable to anyone who enjoys a good piece of fast-paced, action-packed fiction. The story moves really quickly, the characters are likeable and realistic and the writing is excellent" - Goodreads review
