AbstractHistoryArchive Description
'Lora Blackgoat, smuggler and mercenary, has been laying low after a job gone bad made her a laughing stock in the industry. When a childhood friend turns to her for help, Lora leaps to restore her reputation and starts hunting a killer who is stalking the gas-lit streets.
She never expects that her path will lead her to the Order of Guides, a sadistic militant religious organisation - or to Roman, a deadly and dangerously attractive half-angel warrior who also hunts the killer.
When Lora discovers that the killer has broken fundamental laws of magic to enter the city, she also uncovers a conspiracy that leads back into her own dark past.' Source: http://www.amazon.com/ (Sighted 23/11/2012).
Notes
-
Steampunk note: Set in a pre-industrial secondary world, the setting of all three novels in this series has a steampunk edge, as indicated by the descriptor 'gas-lit streets'. The steampunk is more an aesthetic addition to the world-building, rather than the core component.
