Description
If Merouac ever thought his life's work would culminate in leading the metal workshops of the Transcontinental Railroad Project, he was sorely mistaken. Now, his true challenge lies in navigating the other-worldly abilities he's only beginning to understand-abilities that allow him to tune metal to interdimensional frequencies. While trying to be a guardian to his niece, Evra, he's realising she may have more to teach him than he ever expected. At the same time, his decision to help an interdimensional race find refuge underground puts him at the centre of an even deeper mystery. As reality reshapes itself around him, Merouac faces a growing realisation: the world of Ahm is on the brink of a profound transformation, and everything he thought he knew may soon be shattered.

Advance Praise
A vivid sci-fi reading journey!
‘I really enjoyed the way that the author uses her painting to incorporate it into her writing. You can tell by the vivid imagery of her story and the words she writes in it. That was my favorite part of this book, the vivid images as you read through it and you can see what the author is writing.’

In her world creation, Jordan combines the gritty, mechanical practical world of building an essential railway while also reaching into mystical realms. Into explorations of consciousness, reality and perception. While typically patriarchal power struggles and manipulations occur, the deeper widsoms live in the women, gifted children and the more attuned among the men. While the worlds she creates appear alien to ours, they reflect some of the deep issues and concerns for our lives here on planet earth in creative and though-provoking ways.
