Queen of the Cloud Pirates
Far to the North of the Iron League lies the Dropline, beyond which the power of elemental Air rules supreme, where mountains rise from their bases and turn in the skies. Free Miners ply the fractured landscape to supply the League with the ore needed to build airships. Two young men are about to get wrapped up in the fight for the freedom of the region against pirates, politics and the swirling magic of the region itself.
Lors felt like he didn't fit in anywhere. Arnhelm felt no one trusted him. When they are set adrift with Arnhelm's injured uncle, they uncover a plot that threatens the north. If they have any chance to do something about it, one must learn the value of thought before action and the other must overcome his fears to act at all.
A swashbuckling adventure with airships, cloud pirates and their magically imbued queen.
Queen of the Cloud Pirates is a 26,000 word novella.

About the author
Andrew Couch
1 bookI am Andrew Couch, a fantasy geek with a web development day-job.
I grew up reading fantasy novels. High School brought me in contact with friends who got me into watching Anime and reading role-playing game books. Things just went on from there. Video games and other general geekery inspires me.
Much of the inspiration for the worlds I write about is a mix of a wild imagination and travels around the world. I read the history of the places we go to and just store it in my mind. Sometimes stories come to me as we walk around and I try to remember enough to scribble them down when we get home. Most often, the feel of a place and the shape of its architecture inspires me to think about the people that lived there. Add a wild amount of magic and that is the seed of a lot of my stories.
An American abroad, I live in Freiburg, Germany with my wife. In addition to writing fiction, we run several blogs around travel and living abroad.
