City of Brass and Ashes* follows Elias Thane, the last in a line of magical handymen tasked with maintaining the fragile pact between New Orleans and a parallel Djinn metropolis, the City of Brass. When a corporate Djinn entity, Brasswave Holdings, seeks to exploit and drain both cities for profit, Elias must rally an unlikely band of allies: a skeptical historian, a sarcastic scrap-metal sprite, a haunted jazz ghost, and a disillusioned weatherman who is secretly the pact’s living heart. Their desperate battle to save the soul of their cities culminates in a chaotic, musical insurrection within the fiery realm itself, proving that some things—like home and music—are beyond any price.
