The Heart of Resistance - Paperback

Janna Tulli, a disillusioned airship mechanic, is on the run from her father's fruitless rebellion.

Elsie, an orphan trapped in the miserable workhouse system, dreams of a better life.

Princess Yvonnia, heir apparent to the fractured nation of Sial, is forced to seek aid from the imperialists who threaten her people.

Arthur Pendington, former captain of the Imperial Dreadnought Formidable, is out for revenge against the empire that made him into a monster. With nothing but his wits, a rag-tag crew, and an ill-gotten airship, Arthur plans to destroy the remaining dreadnoughts: weapons of terror that rain destruction on the Odolian Empire's enemies and civilians alike.

Arthur's impossible mission pulls them all into his inescapable orbit, threatening to shatter the Odolian establishment and tear apart the lives of his few remaining friends. Set in a Dickensian world of flintlocks, airships, class warfare, and colonialism, this swashbuckling steampunk adventure is packed with action, political intrigue, and unforgettable characters who will stay with you long after the final page.
