Once in a Coyote Moon

There’s no room for magic in the Age of Steam…

After winning the Civil War against the Confederate

Wielders, the Union Machinists have outlawed magic to

usher in a new age of steam-powered technology. Diah,

an alchemist and the only non-wielder in his family,

owes his brother for saving his life in the war; so when

Cager is blackmailed into procuring the magical hide of

the White Buffalo, Diah accompanies him to the Dakota

territory.

Their guide is Oni, a half-Lakota woman with plenty of

secrets to hide. She’s a magic wielder with an illegal

wand concealed in her knife—and she’s a coyote shifter.

To her people, killing the White Buffalo is not only

sacrilege, it’s dangerous. Oni has no intention of

helping them actually achieve their mission—until she

falls in love with Diah…
