The Steampunk Adventure Series of the Decade Has Begun
The first of The Hellfire Chonicles
BLOOD IN THE SKIES
by G.D Falksen

“This is steampunk clanking to life on the page.”
—Jay Lake, Campbell Award winner and author of Mainspring

“A piston blast of pure pulp adventure.”
—John Leavitt, author of Dr. Sketchy’s Official Rainy Day Colouring
Book and Scarlet Takes Manhattan

“G.D. Falksen is not only one of the most important authors in
Steampunk literature, he is arguably the most enjoyable.”
—Art Donovan, author of The Art of Steampunk

“A delightfully crunchy alternate reality that lets you feel the gears
grinding.”
—Phil Foglio, creator of the Hugo Award winning Girl Genius

Author G.D Falksen delivers a mix of action, adventure, and social
commentary in this gripping novel that explores the dark side of the
modern world through the eyes of the past.

The first in a trilogy, Blood in the Skies is set two hundred years after the Great Upheaval, a cataclysmic event that shattered the world
and broke it into countless floating fragments of land. Today, two hundred years later, the pirate gangs of the Badlands prey on the
labor of others, killing and enslaving all who fall before them. The noble pilots of the Commonwealth Air Force patrol the Badlands border,
fighting every day to defend civilization from such brutality.

Wing Commander Elizabeth Steele is one of these knights of the air. She has devoted her life to combating the evils of piracy, and has
seen the price of freedom paid for in blood time and time again. But when a relic from the ancient days falls into her hands, she finds
herself dragged into a world of intrigue and espionage filled with assassins and spies bent on placing the most powerful weapon in
history into the hands of a madman. Aided by a Commonwealth intelligence officer, Steele dives into a race against time to save
the world from destruction, and to save her own life in the process.

G. D. Falksen, the Airship Award nominated author, makes his stunning novel debut with the first novel in The Hellfire Chronicles: Blood In
The Skies. As a blogger for Tor.com, his numerous nonfiction articles have been republished in books, magazines and newspapers around the
world. A noted world wide expert on such subjects as the steampunk genre, he has been interviewed and featured in various international
media ranging from The New York Times, The San Francisco Chronicle, the Boston Globe, and 20 Minuto to MTV, NHK, VBS.tv, the Space channel
and more. Considered to be the Steampunk Dickens, Falksen is best known for his steampunk serials such as The Mask of Tezcatlipoca and
An Unfortunate Engagement, which have been published in such magazines as Steampunk Tales. Is the lead writer for the video game company
Hatboy Studios. A known performer, MC, and model who has appeared at events all across the country. Falksen routinely appears as a literary
guest at events, conventions, and media expos such as New York Comic Con, Dragon*con, and others.
