Publisher's summary
A fallen empire. A failed republic. A frontier of alchemy, airships, magic, and machines.
When the Peace King of the Free Cities goes missing, aging former war hero Ellaria Moonstone uncovers a plot to overthrow the tenuous republic. Fearing that a powerful being called a Sagean Luminary has returned to build a new empire, Ellaria sends for help from old allies and expatriates scattered across the chaotic frontier.
Now, three aging war heroes, long past their prime and haunted by their pasts, are all that stand against a dark entity threatening the future. In their quest, they find themselves unwittingly mentoring a new generation to fight alongside them. But trust between the once inseparable veterans is not what it once was, and the evil they face has allies hiding in every shadow.
The Binding Tempest is the start of an award-winning epic sci-fi and high fantasy adventure injected with steampunk science. The saga that proves that heroes get better with age.

Story
My name is Cade Ombra, and though I currently make my living as a mercenary wonderist, I used to have a far more noble-sounding job title—until I discovered the people I worked for weren't quite as noble as I'd believed. Now I'm on the run and my only friend, a homicidal thunder mage, has invited me to join him on a suicide mission against the seven deadliest mages on the continent. Time to recruit some very bad people to help us on this job.

It's the first and greatest rule Inkwell Featherfield ever learned. It's also the only way he knows how to survive—besides picking pockets, dodging the law, and using every ounce of his plucky charm. But none of this will be enough to save him now. If only he'd never snooped around a dead man's house. If only he'd never found that pocket watch full of strange magic. If only he'd known the old man had snuffed it at the hands of the ghostly Spektors, or that such dark spirits even existed, because now they're after him.

Renowned academic Dr Sparling seeks help with his project on a remote Irish village. Historical researchers Ben and Chloe are thrilled to be chosen—until they arrive. The village is isolated and forgotten. There is no record of its history, its stories. There is no friendliness from the locals, only wary looks and whispers. The villagers lock down their homes at sundown. A nameless fear stalks the streets. Nobody will talk—nobody except one little girl. Her story strikes dread into the hearts of the newcomers. Three times you see him. Each night he comes closer.

All that stands in the Power's way is one troublesome line of humans: descendants of Seth. They are of the only remaining clan clinging to an all-but-dead faith. And yet it's from that faith that a prophecy threatens all plans of world dominion.
