"An original and highly immersive introduction to an intriguing fantasy world." --Kirkus ReviewsA short, fast-paced novella, BRIMSTONE is a work of literary fantasy, and the first in THE METALS TRILOGY.
Sariel, a fugitive slave, is running from the desert mines, and from an Empire that is hungry for a new and mysterious metal that the alchemists call brimstone.
In a moment of mercy and lust, Ava Sandrino, herself a knight fallen from grace, shelters Sariel from his pursuers, and in the light of the moon, he speaks to her of a door. It is a gate that opens into a world that lies beyond the Northern Dark, over the edge of their farthest horizon. There, paupers rub shoulders with princes, and there are riches to be had by those with the will to seize them.
Swayed by Sariel's tales of strange oceans and distant stars, and tired of a past that holds her down, Ava joins him on the trek to the kingdom where souls are remade. Together, they must cross a borderland that is the domain of magicians, the humans that serve them, and the One O'clock King: a faceless despot who guards the crossroads of worlds.

Pursued by the forces of a far-reaching throne, Ava and Sariel have fled their world and cast themselves into the wastes of the Northern Dark. Adrift upon a mysterious new continent, the courtesan and the former slave must navigate the treacherous depths of the black-market cities that lie ahead. When Ava finds herself separated from Sariel, however, the game begins to change. Drawn into the heart of a decaying and decadent court, Ava reluctantly enters the service of the One O'clock King. Her future, the freedom of Sariel, and the fate of all she holds dear are at the mercy of the ailing monarch: a soldier in the final years of his reign, who commands the flow of contraband that breathes wealth into every corner of the worlds. Without an heir, the unrest that has plagued his holdings is set to fracture them, at last. Faced with the revolution and rebirth of a vast and bloody empire, Ava must take her place as an unwilling pawn in a tightening circle of murder, witchcraft, and alchemy.
