The year is 1850, twelve years since Prospero, the former Duke of Milan and steampunk inventor extraordinaire, was exiled to a far-off island by his treacherous brother.  Now the fates have aligned, bringing Prospero’s enemies within the reach of his magic, and the time is nigh to conjure up a tempest, summon old foes, and settle old scores.

​

But even the best-laid plans can run adrift of unforeseen consequences, and soon Prospero’s plan, his control over the island, and even his own daughter are under threat.

​

Can Prospero hold true to his designs, abate a sea of competing claims to the island, and reclaim his dukedom?
