Description

---

Avery Adder, pilot and student of Academy, sees an opportunity for glory when the ever-roaming school turns itself northwards late in the year. Icy seas and frigid winds dwell beneath the shifting Auroran sky lights and Avery seeks to touch the volatile apparition, jarring hidden forces into motion and changing the lives of himself and his peers forever. Fabled enemies stalk the shadows, gods whisper their influence, and blood is shed under the flickering lights as the students of Academy become pieces in a game played by mortals, immortals, and those straddling the line between them... Synthetic Magic is the first volume of The Bloodless Affairs series, featuring a diverse ensemble of characters in a world that blends old magic and new technology seamlessly.
