Tales of the Gearblade: Episode 1 The Relic

By Brad R. Cook

Tales of the Gearblade
Carried for Centuries, the Sword Remembers

Episode 1 - The Relic

The Gearblade, a mechanical folding sword, forged from a fallen star in the flames of old traditions, but engineered for the coming century.

As the world transitions from myth and magic into the mechanized industries, Georgia Bennett stands on the line between the two, protecting a world trying to brick over what lies in the shadows.

With airships cutting through the clouds and submarines slipping beneath the waves, a secret society of sword masters continue the ever-lasting duel against the mythical creatures of darkness. In the Order, swords retain memories, and she must find one to learn the truth about her mentor’s killer and complete a quest Georgia knows nothing about.

Time is against her as she travels from the Highlands of Scotland, to the aircities of France, and the depths of the ocean as she tracks down a hellgate before it can be opened.
