The Clockwork King Of Orl

“There’s a whole world out there and it isn’t ours!” The words of her mentor inspire Kali Hooper to explore the lost places of Twilight, unearth the secrets of its past and discover the fate of the vanished Old Races. But when an unexpected encounter in the deadly Spiral of Kos brings Kali head to head with Twilight’s all-consuming Final Faith, she finds herself in a race for the keys to the Old Races’ most terrifying secret yet – the mysterious construct known as the Clockwork King of Orl. Everything Kali knows is about to change. She’ll lose old friends, gain new ones, learn a devastating secret about herself, and come face to face with a threat she must stop at any cost. Because while the Final Faith believe what they are about to unleash is their true destiny, Kali knows it is not only their future but the whole of Twilight’s that hangs in the balance. She has seen the fires, the deaths. She has heard the marching. The marching that heralds a sea of blood...

Lucius Kane, thief and Shadowmage, now rules over the thieves’ guild in the city of Turnitia. The new ruling lord has proven willing to work with the thieves, and relations with the beggars and Shadowmages guilds are relaxed and friendly. Now, however, an ancient artefact calls to Lucius, one that will unlock the secrets of his own heritage. But such power inevitably attracts others, determined to harness its mystical energies for their own ends; and a game of brinksmanship erupts between the two great empires, Vos and Pontaine.Will Lucius be prepared to pay his legacy’s price and find out who he truly is?

Silus Morlader and the crew of the Llothriall find themselves beached in the middle of a desert after a magical storm envelops their ship. Stranded with dwindling supplies and half their crew missing, Silus leads his companions across the harsh landscape in search of civilisation. What they find will change their view of the world forever. A new race reveals to Silus that his god, Kerberos, is not all he appears to be; that everything they understand about life on Twilight may be wrong. When the truth is finally told, Silus and his companions must fight their way across a dying world, facing Final Faith fanatics, orcs and dragons. They must find a way to deliver a very important message to Katherine Makennon, head of the Final Faith, before war tears Twilight apart.

Silus is a fisherman working the Nurn coast; a simple man leading a simple life. But there is more to Silus than even he knows. Soon Silus’s life is turned upside down when a mysterious man on the run from the Final Faith tries to persuade him to embark on an extraordinary voyage. Soon Silus becomes a pawn in a deadly game played between ancient races – and he must take to the forbidding Twilight seas to discover a world-shattering truth about his own abilities.

A Master of Shadows! Lucius Kane was forced to flee Turnitia when the Vos Empire destroyed his home and his family. Now, many years later, he returns to the city that once held him safe. Here he finds a new trade and joins up with the Hands, a thieves guild run with precision and economy by a master of his craft. But Lucius is so much more than a mere thief. He is a Shadowmage! These practitioners of magic and subterfuge are master infiltrators, spies, scouts... and assassins. Now Lucius finds his loyalty torn between the Hands and his mentor in the secret society of Shadowmages. And when a war erupts between the thieves guilds that threatens to wash the streets of Turnitia with blood, Lucius must decide where his loyalties lie while mastering his burgeoning powers!

“Is this what happened to the Old Races? My Gods, is this how they died?” Hordes of a deadly and unknown species of predator swarm across Twilight, killing and destroying everything in their path. Where have they come from? Is there a connection with the Final Faith airship in the Drakengrat Mountains? What was ‘the mistake’? Exactly what are the k’nid – and how can they be stopped? New questions for Kali Hooper and her friends to answer – but doing so will prove far from easy. From a labyrinthine dwarven deathtrap to a besieged and battle-torn city, a haunted ancient limbo at the end of time and the aquatic lair of a vast serpent, Kali must battle her way to a place in the clouds that legend calls the Crucible of the Dragon God. There she must confront the past itself, for the Crucible holds a secret kept even from the Old Races – a secret so staggering that Kali is about to discover the true reason her world is called Twilight…

Do you see the Light? The Final Faith does, and so does Enlightened One Gabriella DeZantez, Sister of the Swords of Dawn. She sees the Light of God. She sees the Light of Truth. The Order of the Swords of Dawn have been the bane of heretics and apostates for as long as there has been a Final Faith, but when an assassin strikes at the heart of the Faith, it signals both a new threat and an ancient one. Gabriella must eliminate the danger to the Faith, but what is the connection between shadowy assassins, fleeing refugees, and an ancient legend of an island made of diamond? The answers can only be illuminated by making everyone see the Light of God, the Light of Truth and, ultimately, the Light of Heaven.
