In a city built among the bones of any fallen giant, a small group of heroes appears to reclaim their house from the five criminal tyrants who control it. The city of Audec-Hal sits among the bone fragments of any Titan. For many years it has suffered under the dominance of five tyrants, all using their own agendas. Their infighting is nothing at all, though, compared to the strange "Spark-storms" that alternate between razing the land and bestowing the residents with wild, unstable abilities. It was one of the storms that provided First Sentinel, leader of the revolutionaries known as the Shields of Audec-Hal, power to control the psychological relationships between people - a electric power that cost him the love of his life. Now, with nothing at all left to reduce, First Sentinel and the Shields are the only resistance against the city's overlords as they make an effort to free themselves from the clutches of evil. The only thing they have choosing them would be that the criminal offenses lords are fighting with each other each other as well - that is, until the tyrants consent to a summit that will entirely divide the location and concrete their guideline of Audec-Hal. It's a very important factor to have a stand against oppression, but with the chances stacked against the Shields, it's another thing to really triumph. On this stunning, original tale of magic and trend, Michael R. Underwood creates a cityscape that rivals Ambergris and New Crobuzon in its depth and populates it with heroes and villains that will remain with you permanently.
