* * *
METAL EMISSARY (book 1)
Despatched on a secret mission in Central Asia, 22 year old Lieutenant Jamie Hanover encounters hostile tribes, steam-powered robots and djinn in his search for answers regarding the British defeat at Trafalgar.
Helped by the strange mystic, Hari Singh, the two men fight side by side in the mountains as they track a strange metal emissary through the infamous Khyber Pass.
Following in the emissary’s destructive footsteps Jamie and Hari travel to Adina Pur, where the uncovering of secrets and the culmination of their respective missions demands a heavy price.
Metal Emissary is a Steampunk Adventure set in Central Asia in the 1850s, full of weird machines, exotic characters, dust, snow and blood.

SLOW DEMONS (book 2)
Studying the precise art of chronology, scientist Luise Hanover is in the process of manipulating time. As her work attracts the interest of foreign powers, Luise is drawn into a fast-paced and chaotic world of shadowy alliances, exotic characters and the madly competitive world of steamracing.
In the shadows and on the streets of London, Luise turns to the only person she can truly trust, Hari Singh and his sulky hawk, Shahin.
Slow Demons is a Steampunk Adventure set in London in the 1850s full of weird machines, exotic characters, dirt, engine grease and demons.
* * *
KHRONOS (book 3)
The Russian city of Arkhangelsk has fallen, its people held hostage within its walls as the German Confederation employs its Metal Emissaries in a new, more menacing role.
Unaware of the drama in Arkhangelsk, Luise Hanover and Hari Singh hide onboard The Flying Scotsman, making their way north as they race to uncover the secrets of the khronoglyphs, before the slow demons open the passage of time.
Khronos is a Steampunk Adventure set in Europe in the 1850s, full of airships, steam-powered fighting machines, chaos, rubble and dust.
Khronos continues the adventures of Hanover and Singh, linking each of the previous books: Metal Emissary (book 1) and Slow Demons (book 2), while setting the scene for the closing adventure in book 4.

DJINN (book 4)
The Passage of Time has been opened and the siege of Arkhangelsk has begun.
Djinn, the fourth book in the Adventures of Hanover and Singh, pulls the different threads of the series together, throwing the Hanovers and their allies into close quarters with steam-powered machines, time demons, Cossack rebels and djinn as they race to close the Passage of Time and free the city of Arkhangelsk.
While Luise Hanover steams north with the Wallendorf war machine, Hari travels to Afghanistan in search of an old friend who just might tip the balance in the coming battle.
Djinn is the fourth Steampunk Adventure set in Central Asia and Russia in the 1850s, full of heavy metal battles, ancient beings, Cossacks, smoke and steam.
Djinn continues the adventures of Hanover and Singh, linking each of the previous books: Metal Emissary (book 1), Slow Demons (book 2) and Khronos (book 3). It also hints to earlier stories that can be found in the "Emissary Metal" series, also available.
