Sal the Cacophony has made few friends, but many enemies. Many, many enemies. When her magic was taken from her, she cried out for revenge. And a power she never understood promised her vengeance. A deal for a bloody price was made. And now the bill has come due. In one of the last free cities of the burned-out ruin of the Scar, Sal’s many foes—old and new—have hunted down her and her few allies—willing and otherwise—and all her plans to save them might not be enough.

Sieben Namen auf einer Liste. Sieben Magier mit schwarzen Klingen. Und eine Frau, die auf Rache sinnt... Das wüste Land Scar, gelegen inmitten dreier verfeindeter Reiche, ist die Heimat von Vagabunden, Magiern und Verbrechern. Der perfekte Ort für einen Rachefeldzug. Bewaffnet mit einer magischen Pistole, einem Schwert namens Jeff und einer Flasche Whiskey zieht die gefürchtete Söldnerin Sal durch das Land, auf der Suche nach den Männern, die ihr alles genommen haben: Ihre Magie, ihren Namen und beinahe auch ihr Leben.

Sal the Cacophony - outlaw, outcast, outnumbered - destroys all that she loves. Her lover lost and cities burned in her wake, all she has left is her magical gun and her all-consuming quest for revenge against those who stole her power and took the sky from her. When the roguish agent of a mysterious patron offers her the chance to participate in a heist to steal an incredible power from the famed airship fleet the Ten Arrows, she finds a new purpose.

Step up to the gates. After years in the wilds, Lenk and his companions have come to the city that serves as the world's beating heart. The great charnel house where men die surer than any wilderness. They've come to claim payment for creatures slain, blood spilled at the behest of a powerful holy man. And Lenk has come to lay down his sword for good. But this is no place to escape demons.

A witch, a reanimated Crusader Knight, and two members of the church are bestowed with an immense task. So begins an unlikely and accidental alliance between these ill-assorted characters as they strive to slay the dragon Ziegfried, which is terrorising the countryside.

Shaia "Shy" Ratani is a clever rogue who makes her living outside of strictly legal methods. While hiding out in the frontier city of Yanmass, she accepts a job solving a nobleman's murder, only to find herself sucked into a plot involving an invading centaur army that could see the whole city burned to the ground. Shy could stop that from happening, but doing so would involve revealing herself to the former friends who now want her dead.

Betrayed by those she trusts most and her magic ripped from her, all Sal the Cacophony has left is her name, her story, and the weapon she used to carve both. But she has a will stronger than magic and knows exactly where to go. The Scar, a land torn between powerful empires, where rogue mages go to disappear, disgraced soldiers go to die and Sal went with a blade, a gun, and a list of seven names.

A decidedly unusual pairing, half-breed sorceress Armecia and her constantly stoned sidekick, Sir Leonard of Savhael, join forces with a cowardly church vassal and a giantess posing as a nun. Their quest? To catch and kill Zeigfried, a fiery - if not too fearsome - dragon.
