Wand Smoke: Broken

By MarQuese Liddle

A Dark Fantasy Expedition of Vengeance and Redemption

Just outside a small coal mining town by the name of Village South dwells the bitter, blind, drug-dealing troglodyte, the self-styled cult leader and Lord of Fear, Canti. Together with his sole follower, the Serpent Cursed girl known only as Broken, these wannabe villains seek power in occult magic enough to take their vengeance on humanity-that is, until their leaden souls are turned to gold when both Canti and Broken become heroes after coming face to face with a real Spirit of Vengeance and Incarnation of Tyranny.

Wand Smoke: Broken is a fantastically dark, episodic father-daughter redemption tale steeped in folklore, black humor, and occult horror. Amidst faeries, flintlocks, miasma, and monsters, a blind troglodyte and a serpent-cursed girl struggle toward humanity in a brutal, industrializing world.

For readers who enjoy the tragic antiheroes of Michael Moorcock's Elric of Melnibon and the immersive, unexplained worldbuilding of Gene Wolfe's The Book of the New Sun.
