A Nautical Gothic tale set in 1806 about a cursed pirate, a wrathful sea witch, and the rise of the airship.
After scorning the wrong type of woman, Captain Ryland Coldwell—pirate, lover, and overall adventurer—finds himself trapped in the West Indies with an unfortunate case of immortality. With only his anger to keep him company, Ryland waits for the day he can seek his revenge on his past lover Gwenifer, the sea witch who cursed him. But in his attempts to escape, Ryland has left a trail of sinking ships in his wake. Luckily for him, the world has finally begun to evolve, and with the rise of Napoleon Bonaparte has come the rise of the airship, the only type of vessel that Ryland has a chance of fleeing on. However, none of these ships had yet to reach the West Indies… until one night one does.
Emmeline Whittock is the only woman on board the airship the Nyx, and the only one wearing a jacket stained with her brother's blood. After fleeing from her murderous fiancé and the threats of Napoleon's army, the Nyx is blown off course and lands in the West Indies, a place they very much shouldn't be. When attacked by pirates, one man comes to save the day—Ryland, who Emmeline feels a pull towards, even against her better judgment. Agreeing to take him on board, Emmeline and the crew assume their trip will be easy, not realizing that in every rippling wave and growing storm is the wrath of a sea witch, hunting for the man who wasn't supposed to leave the islands.
Against the backdrop of the Napoleonic Wars and crossing the seas from the Caribbean to New Orleans to Venice, Ryland and Emmeline will both come to learn that betrayals can run deep but love can run deeper, lasting beyond a lifetime. In A Cursed Age, fates will realign, hearts will be broken, and the future of the world will rest in the hands of a very vexed pirate and a misfit crew with everything to lose.
All's fair in love and war… and revenge.
