In a sky choked with smoke and ruled by warlords, Odessa Drake flies alone-smuggler, exile, survivor. Her ship, the Iron Vulture, is a patched-together relic limping from one desperate job to the next. When a mysterious mechanic offers her a fortune to transport an unmarked crate across the war-torn Rustveil Wastes, she knows it's a suicide run-but she's out of fuel, out of allies, and out of time. What begins as a routine smuggling job spirals into a war for the skies. Hunted by the ruthless warlord Rourke and haunted by her own past, Odessa is pulled into a conflict that threatens to engulf what's left of civilization. Inside the crate lies a weapon that could end the war-or start something worse. From the burning docks of Port Varnis to the blood-soaked spires of Ashkarn, Iron Vultures is a gritty, diesel-fueled ride through a broken world. With aerial dogfights, scavenger cities, and a heroine with nothing left to lose, this post-apocalyptic sky-punk saga blends raw action with emotional grit. Survival isn't enough anymore. It's time to take the sky back.
