Book description
In a Golden Age where spark reactors power the airways, and creatures
of Light and Shadow walk openly among us, a deadly game of Alchemists
and Warlocks has begun.
When an unusual cargo drags airship-pilot Elle Chance into the
affairs of the mysterious Mr Marsh, she must confront her destiny and
do everything in her power to stop the Alchemists from unleashing a
magical apocalypse.
Combining the best elements of nineteenth century gothic fiction
with contemporary Steampunk, adventure, romance and the
supernatural, Liesel Schwarz has crafted a truly exceptional debut,
the first book in The Chronicles of Light and Shadow trilogy.
Liesel Schwarz was born in Johannesburg, South Africa and lives and
works in the UK. A life-long fan of 19th Century Gothic literature, she
is a hopeless romantic and loves Victorians, Steampunk, fairies, fantasy
monsters, the Fin de siècle, and the correct way to drink absinthe.
