Professor Oladel Adewole has lost tenure, and the beloved, much-younger sister he's raised has died. With no reason to stay, he leaves his homeland for the University of Eisenstadt. One thing makes life in Adewole's new home bearable for him: the island floating a mile above the city. Adewole is an expert in the myths told all over the world about the isolated, mysterious island. When a brilliant engineer is the first to make it to Inselmond, the government sends Adewole up with its first survey team. The expedition finds civilization, and Adewole finds a powerful, forbidden fusion of magic and metal: the Machine God. The government wants it. So does a sociopath bent on ruling Eisenstadt. But when Adewole discovers who the mechanical creature is--and what it can do--he risks his heart and his life to protect the Machine God from the world, and the world from the Machine God. About The Drifting Isle Chronicles This unique fantasy series was created by an international team of writers who collaborated to create a new shared world full of original and diverse people, places, creatures, and ideas. Perhaps for the first time in history, a team of writers has written and published an entire series of novels all at once! Each author wrote their own book in this new world, telling very different stories about very different people living in one fantastical city during the greatest discovery of the modern age. The writers worked closely to weave their characters and plots carefully together, in order to bring you this unique tapestry of steampunk action and fantasy adventure. The first three books, which you can read in any order, are: Black Mercury . . . Charlotte E. English The Kaiser Affair . . . Joseph Robert Lewis The Machine God . . .
