Publisher Description

What if your very best effort just made things worse?

Connor's had better days. . . And tomorrow's not looking any better. The dread queen Dreokt is back from her centuries-long slumber. She's a barking-mad lunatic, who destroys minds and kills on a whim. Soon all of Obrion will cower under her rule. How long before she turns her attention to the rest of the continent?

They can't afford to wait, but how to fight her?

While Hamish uses sugar-saturated inspiration to invent even deadlier Builder mechanicals, Jean focuses all the resources of her growing school on developing terrifying new weapons.

All Connor has to do is start a revolution. If he can escape the queen's deadly minions and set the Guardians free, they might just save Obrion. Well, what's left of it.

Connor's never tried breaking an entire nation before. He's going to need more bacon.
