Synopsis

Shale is in trouble - the creature-filled darkness known as the Roil is expanding, consuming the land, swallowing up whole cities. Where once there were twelve metropolises, now only four remain, and their borders are being threatened by the growing cloud of darkness. The only way to hold back the darkness and the horrific creatures that inhabit it are the Cities' huge ice cannons. But one by one the defences are failing. And the Roil continues to grow. With the land in chaos it's up to a rebellious wastrel, an old man and a woman intent on revenge to try to save their city - and the world.
