The Brass Ascension

About this book

In the sprawling, soot-choked steampunk metropolis of Vaneburg, four young adults from vastly different walks of life collide. Gideon, a brilliant mechanic bound to the slums, dreams of the sky; Bea, a runaway aristocrat, seeks freedom from an arranged future; Julian, a wealthy but disillusioned heir, battles his family's toxic legacy; and Cora, a fiercely independent airship pilot, longs for a vessel to call her own. Together, this unlikely syndicate forms a fragile alliance to secretly construct an unregistered airship capable of piercing the city's oppressive smog barrier. As they scavenge for restricted parts and dodge ruthless enforcers, their professional boundaries blur into complex romantic entanglements and deep personal revelations. Bound by a shared desire for autonomy, the crew must navigate the treacherous waters of class warfare, hidden pasts, and shifting loyalties to launch their ship and forge their true identities before the ruling class crushes their ambitions.
