A newly emerged drake of immense power threatens to collapse this corporate empire, commanding an army of beasts and men. Blood‑blessed Claydon Torcreek, Syndicate agent Lizanne Lethridge, and Ironship captain Corrick Hilemore are scattered across the world, yet must combine their newly gained abilities and hard‑won knowledge—often at great personal cost—to halt the drake commander's forces before the entire world they know is lost.
