    About this audiobook

    The second book in the Alchemy Wars trilogy by Ian Tregillis, an epic tale of liberation and war.
    Jax, a rogue Clakker, has wreaked havoc upon the Clockmakers' Guild by destroying the Grand Forge. Reborn in the flames, he must begin his life as a free Clakker, but liberation proves its own burden.
    Berenice, formerly the legendary spymaster of New France, mastermind behind her nation's attempts to undermine the Dutch Hegemony -- has been banished from her homeland and captured by the Clockmakers Guild's draconian secret police force.
    Meanwhile, Captain Hugo Longchamp is faced with rallying the beleaguered and untested defenders of Marseilles-in-the-West for the inevitable onslaught from the Brasswork Throne and its army of mechanical soldiers.

      Like any good middle story in a trilogy, this one is dark and hopeless. Jax escapes only to find that freedom is elusive. Beatrice jumps out of the frying pan and into the fire more than once. France hangs in the balance... It's a bleak ride.

      Just finished Ian Tregillis' The Rising.

      Holy Shit.

      The first book was good, but this book is excellent. Tight, extremely fast moving, action-packed, this book escalates everything to a new level.

      Also Tregillis can write a convergence! A small one, but a good one
