Guns of the Dawn is a captivating fantasy of war and magic, penned by the acclaimed Arthur C. Clarke Award-winning author, Adrian Tchaikovsky.

Set in a world where the first casualty of war is truth, the story unfolds as Denlands revolutionaries assassinate their king, igniting a wave of bloodshed that spans generations of peace.

Genteel Emily Marshwic, a young woman who has watched her family's young men be conscripted into the army, finds herself compelled to join the ranks of conscripted women and march towards the front lines. With barely enough training to hold a musket, Emily embarks on a harrowing journey into the savage reality of warfare. However, as she witnesses the devastating consequences of the war, she begins to doubt the righteousness of her country's cause.

Her doubts grow more critical as she navigates the treacherous terrain of battle and confronts the moral dilemmas that arise. Emily's choices will not only shape her own future but also have a profound impact on the fate of two nations locked in a relentless conflict.
