Coup de Grâce

coup-degrace

Clockwork cities. Steam-powered airships. Magic. Time travel. Cerebral characters struggling to stop the creation of an alchemical power capable of obliterating all life on the planet. Coup de Grâce has all of this and more. It is from the start a relentless ride, richly populated with wonders as any Golden Age novel.

The tropes of science fiction and fantasy merge with steampunk to create an enthralling story with heady action scenes that propel a spirited adventure.

An innovative sci-fi epic with enough dramatic twists, cliff-hangers, and sudden reversals of fortune to keep readers’ pulse elevated.

Coup de Grâce triumphantly celebrates the many pulpy facets of the genre in this emotionally resonant chronicle.
