About the Author:
From Publishers Weekly:
Stephen Hunt is the author of 'The Court of the Air'. He set up one of the first science fiction and fantasy websites, www.SFcrowsnest.com, in 1994. Today the site has 340,000 readers a month. Stephen Hunt is in his thirties and lives with his wife and children in Surrey.
This campy postapocalyptic steampunk environmental morality tale brings together several characters from 2009's The Court of the Air and 2010's The Kingdom Beyond the Waves and takes them on a hair-raising rollercoaster of an adventure. When the Army of Shadows threatens the Kingdom of Jackals and the Quatérshift, the two countries must set aside their differences and work together against the monstrous and dangerous foe. The Shadows appear to be a completely unknown form of life, and their nature compels destruction of everything in their path. Molly Templar, Commodore Black, Duncan Connor, Coppertracks the Steamman, Oliver Brooks and a few new faces must race the clock to stem the tide of this horrendous evil. A dash of earth magic and a dose of environmental angst make this a bumpy but enjoyable ride. (Mar.)
