AN ENDLESS VOID. A POWERFUL ANOMALY. A QUEST FOR REVENGE.
When The Sinker was a child, her home was destroyed by The Construct, a floating machine that consumes all in its path. To survive, she fled into the void, a seemingly infinite nothingness where few dare venture, filled with floating, vertically stacked rocks. Some of these rocks are giant magnets, some burn with eternal flame and some are influenced by the presence of seemingly magical objects – anomalies that defy physical laws.
For half a lifetime, The Sinker has wandered the void on a quest for knowledge, for understanding and for peace. But when rumours reach her that The Construct is near again, she knows fate has come full circle. With the help of Crooked Arm – the heir to a shattered throne, who happens to possess the most powerful anomaly of all – the two of them set out on a mission to end the tyranny of The Construct forever.

I've never seen anything like it' 'Epic, dystopian fun loaded with the kind of ideas and stakes and characters that the best science fiction offers us – the chance to imagine new worlds, new ways of thinking, and opportunities to change the machineries and conventions that shape our lives'
