In the Grasp, a realm on the threshold of enlightenment, the dactyli guard the fading embers of their ancient brotherhood, dedicated to the pursuit of absolute truth. Lovelace and Gunnar, two of the order's last rangers, find themselves on the precipice of a changing world. When the order faces a fatal threat from within, Lovelace and Gunnar embark on a dangerous ranging, whereon they discover that more than the welfare of the order is at stake: a rogue dactyli named Alev amasses an army of those he calls the Burned Ones, mercenaries wielding elemental forces. Lovelace and Gunnar are forced to grapple with the unimaginable implications. Meanwhile, the Grasp languishes under the oppressive rule of Osbert, who exploits the recent advent of the printing press to smoor the fires of budding enlightenment. A young woman named Kylene undertakes a journey to find her missing father, a prominent printer wanted for sedition. Her path leads her to the kapnobatai, a mysterious group of outcasts with whom Kylene takes up refuge and the mantle of her father's fight for freedom. In the mountains of Droch Fhortan, Lovelace and Gunnar encounter a feral young woman, Cora. Her mere existence uproots an age-old belief and puts to ground a new truth: magic can be awakened, magic can be taught. As their paths intertwine, a shared purpose emerges - to expose Osbert's tyranny, thwart Alev's dangerous plot, and rekindle the flame of enlightenment. So begins the battle for the minds of the Graspish people, and a quest for the heart of magic itself.

Tales from Inside The Boerarrium collects for the first time, in two volumes, the strange and disparate worlds of A.K. Otterness. In a Universe where alternate realities exist in mad profusion, and mankind has spread his terms of engagement beyond the boundaries of the known, Otterness has tracked down these pixelated stories of future inhabitants and transcribed them backward in time to our disturbingly technocratic present. Volume I includes a new foreward by Aegon Specktowsky and 10 riveting short stories by Otterness, including: Plantaddict, The Blue, Integrand, FogFascists, Boerarrium, EggCreetor, and The Klotho Trigger. Vol. IX in the Machine-Humanist Library.
