Grace is a mechanized soldier created by a scientist working for the emperor of Zoldaad. She possesses a similar appearance to her original form and is the head of the empire’s Magitek squadron, its most dominant force. She was once a member of the rebel army that challenged the empire, but is now an agent of evil who has used her abilities to trick her former comrades into believing she still remains their ally.
Grace Draven shows off her mastery of tropes in this steampunk Victorian tale that explores lost loves, resurrected dead, and Lovecraftian portals. She shares some of these concepts with her previous series, Wraith Kings, but it’s still a fun and engaging read that challenges the traditional paranormal romance narratives.
