Book Description
For 312 years the rotstorm has blighted the ruins of the Ferron Empire. Born of an unholy war between gods themselves, it scours the land with acid mists and deadly lightning, spawning twisted monstrosities from its nightmarish depths.On the Stormwall, the men and women of the Stormguard maintain their vigil -- eyes sharp, blades sharper -- defending the Undal Protectorate from the worst of the rotstorm's corruption.But behind the stormfront, something is stirring, kindling the embers of an ancient conflict and a plan to kill a god.Will Stormguard steel be enough to meet the coming tempest?***As the children of the storm carve a bloody swathe across the Northern Marches, the whitestaffs -- the Protectorate's healers and sages -- have fled, retreating to their island citadel of Riven. Their withdrawal has weakened the realm, and worse, their absence is a death sentence for Floré's daughter Marta. Skein-sick, Marta wastes away from the terrible magic she has inherited from her father and only the whitestaffs have the knowledge that might save her. When Flore is dispatched to reason with the whitestaffs, to bring them back into the fold, she seizes the chance. Her mission could save both the protectorate and her child. But on the island of Iskander, caged and chained, she will only discover the worst betrayal.

Book Description
Charlie and Parker are punks by night, biohackers by day, living in the stuttering decay of near-future climate-collapse London. They pay for the beer they don't steal with money from their sketchy astronomy site Zodiac Code, while Charlie's bio-bespoke augments equip the criminals, punks, and eco-warriors of London. They have to deal with disgruntled clients, scene kids who don't dig their band, and a city that's run by corporates and criminals. Their world is split into three factions: Green – who are still trying to save the world; Blue – who try to profit while they can, and Black – who see no hope left. When a group of extremist Green activists hire them for a series of jobs ranging from robbery to murder, Charlie – who struggles to feel anything except Black – wants to walk away. But Parker still believes they can make a difference, and urges her to accept. As they enter an escalating biological arms race against faceless corporations, amoral biohackers, and criminal cyberpunks, Charlie will have to choose what she believes in. Is there still hope, and does she have a right to grab it?

But what are the chances that one may endure one, as well as the other, at almost the exact same time? A man devoted to both his family and duty gets thrown for a spin when an inexplicable evil parades his home, a land for people unlike ourselves who are meant to protect us, and eradicates his entire race. All that remains of what used to be, lies within the egg that contains his unborn child. All of his plans as a husband and soon-to-be father are put on hiatus as Storm, Guardian of Fire, searches for the ending that will hopefully restore his new beginning.
