The Rising by Ian Tregillis
The second book in the Alchemy Wars trilogy by Ian Tregillis, an epic tale of liberation and war.Jax, a rogue Clakker, has wreaked havoc upon the Clockmakers' Guild by destroying the Grand Forge. Reborn in the flames, he must begin his life as a free Clakker, but liberation proves its own burden.
Berenice, formerly the legendary spymaster of New France, mastermind behind her nation's attempts to undermine the Dutch Hegemony -- has been banished from her homeland and captured by the Clockmakers Guild's draconian secret police force.
Meanwhile, Captain Hugo Longchamp is faced with rallying the beleaguered and untested defenders of Marseilles-in-the-West for the inevitable onslaught from the Brasswork Throne and its army of mechanical soldiers.
Ian Tregillis is the son of a bearded mountebank and a tarot card reader who has fallen out of favor. His parents fled the wrath of a Flemish prince and settled in Minnesota, where he was born and nurtured. (The complete story, he's told, involves a stolen horse and a Dutch tramp boat.) He now lives in New Mexico, where he hangs out with writers, scientists, and other shady characters.
