A Stillness of the Sun

He'll make them into weapons. It will be up to them to become heroes.

A dark journey toward redemption through a bleak but beautifully-rendered world where monsters are real—and the worst of them might be us.

Philadelphia, 1806. Tales of water ghosts haunt the docks, violence stalks the streets, and Indian uprisings fill the news. Kellen Ward and Vincent Bradley are down on their luck and low on options. When Vincent is offered a job outside the city, he has to take it—even though it means leaving Kellen behind. Alone in Philadelphia, Kellen struggles to stay a step ahead of a murderous supernatural threat and an equally murderous madman. Meanwhile, Vincent gets caught up in the plots of a charismatic military leader with big plans for the men he's recruited—plans which include experimental and irreversible changes to their bodies and minds that might make more of them than they ever dreamed.If it doesn't kill them first.Fans of Brandon Sanderson's The Alloy of Law, Brent Weeks' Lightbringer series, Django Wexler's Shadow Campaigns series, or Brian McClellan's Powder Mage trilogy will enjoy this military fantasy with historical fiction roots and a taste of the occult.
