Old Bolts – Edward Nile 


 

A Memory of Iron...

The Arkenian Civil War is over.
Diesel-fueled Warsuits and the Kaizer Engines that power them have been outlawed. Machines which once won freedom for a new nation now lie in pieces, demolished and left to rust.
One man can't let go.
For over a year, Viktor and his team of mechanics have survived, cold and hungry in the frigid mountains of Northern Arkenia. In exile, cut off from the world, they hold vigil over a last remaining vestige of the nation’s history. A Kaizer Warsuit they name Old Bolts.
But when a little boy wanders close to their strange dwelling, Viktor learns that the mountains have become home to a new mining settlement.
Where the residents are not allowed to leave.
Now Viktor must decide. Decide whether to help the miners of Talbrigdon and risk exposing not only his men, but Old Bolts. Or whether to hold firm to his duty and protect this symbol of liberty from destruction. As things become more dire for both his people and the miners, a deeper secret haunts Viktor.
One that could tear Old Bolts and her crew apart.
