In this steampunk sequel to The Impossible Cube, two adventurers must find a way inside a kingdom on the brink of war to save themselves and the world. As Gavin Ennock pilots his airship, the Lady of Liberty, to China, his fiancée, Lady Alice Michaels prays they make it in time. The Clockwork Plague consumes Gavin’s body and mind, driving him increasingly mad—and driving a wedge between him and Alice. Their only hope lies in China with the Dragon Men. But a power-hungry general has seized the Chinese throne, intending to conquer Asia, Britain, and the world. He has also closed the country’s borders to foreigners. Meanwhile, the former ruling dynasty is plotting to return the throne’s rightful heir to power.

A bounty hunter with her eyes on the prize, Jenna's to do list includes making obscene amounts of money, pizza and ice-cream at the weekends, and world domination. It does not include an asshole of a space rat, or a black hole. It especially did not include a planet in the ass end of beyond where everything is out to eat her. Or a sexy alien who she'd really like to-- But, she's a big girl. She can deal. What she didn't count on was him ... Stranded on a backwater planet, he's given up on rescue and his gods. Just. He doesn't expect the answer to his prayers to be a tiny, soft alien with curves that make his mouth water ...

The planet is hostile, everything on it, including the plant-life, predatory. So he fits right in. When a ship crashes on his planet, he's not prepared to meet his first human. He's definitely not prepared for the reaction she invokes in him. But he is prepared to kill to keep her safe.
