When a mysterious flying city crashes into their floating island home, Athena and her brother Thaddeus must unravel the mystery of the crash before their family is destroyed forever.

When a mysterious city of Carthage crashes into the floating island Tiber, the Burly family is thrust into a deadly web of political intrigue, deception, and betrayal—culminating in murder! Worse still, one of them is accused of the crime. Now, it’s up to the rest of the family to uncover the truth and clear their name before the accused is sentenced to a swift and perilous fall to the Land Below.

Athena and Thaddeus return in The Child Throne! Taking place two years after The Bronze Age, the pair of them will face off against duskling swarms along with all new threats, including a fire breathing chimera, an ill tempered young ruler and a Sincerity Enforcement Minister. With danger at every turn and resurfacing old enemies, Athena and Thad will need to navigate a maze hidden motives and uncover the truth before it is too late. They won't be getting out of this one unscathed.
