Echoes of the Vapor Veil

About this book

In the fog-choked steampunk metropolis of Nimbusreach, suspended above an abyssal sea, distilled memories known as 'vapor echoes' are harvested as fuel and addictive elixirs for the ruling Vaporlords. Soren, a lanky vaporweaver burdened by the identity-blurring effects of echo bleed, survives in the undercity by crafting illusions to evade enforcers. When Soren accidentally inhales a pure vapor echo, they uncover a terrifying conspiracy: the construction of the Oblivion Spire, designed to flood the city with amnesia-inducing mist and erase all debts and rebellions. Forced to abandon their solitary existence, Soren forms an alliance with Jax Harrow, an optimistic tram conductor, alongside inventor sister Lena and gruff smuggler Thorne. Together, they must navigate treacherous refineries, sky-high zeppelin battles, and their own profound emotional barriers. As the city teeters on the brink of mindless subjugation, Soren must master their volatile abilities and learn to trust others, risking their very sanity to preserve the authentic memories and identities of Nimbusreach's people.
