A Book by

​​

Gears of the Fallen Empire marks the beginning of The Soul Dragon Saga, a labor of love years in the making from debut author S. H. Cross. This steampunk fantasy epic is about courage in the face of extinction, the price of leadership, and the bonds that form when everything else falls to shadow. The novel emerges from countless hours of world-building, where every gear, dragon, and corner of a crumbling empire has been carefully crafted with passion and dedication. In a world where Victorian ingenuity collides with dragon-born fantasy, ancient powers awaken alongside the hiss of steam and the turn of clockwork mechanisms. This isn't just another steampunk fantasy—it's an invitation into a fully realized realm where imagination fuels innovation and where the fall of one empire may herald the rise of something far more extraordinary. Written by a devoted storyteller who refused to let this world remain unshared, Gears of the Fallen Empire represents the kind of epic adventure that can only come from years of careful creation and genuine love for the craft of fantasy storytelling.
