About This Book

Set in a future dominated by hovering god-globes and a rigid squirarchy, the narrative follows a rebellious rucker, Revel, who kills a god and seizes a captive woman, setting off a chain of violent confrontations. He allies with the pragmatic Jerran and the wry Rack, uses recovered ancient firearms, and battles priestly enforcers and reptilian zanphs while challenging entrenched privilege. The story moves between tense action and glimpses of daily hardship, examining resistance to ritualized authority, the persistence of folk memory, and the uneasy return of lost technologies amid social decay.
