1817 sees the first signs of recovery from the Year Without a Summer - and the beginning of the end of the journey of the airship "Dame Fortuna." The crew first accept a unique offer from the Shogun of Japan, traveling with the Dutch contingent from the island of Dejima into the isolationist nation. From there, their travels will take them through the English colonies in Australia and India, into darkest Africa, and eventually home to England.

The faeries are preparing for a war throughout worlds. But before the fighting comes the talking. May is approaching, but there's no way Megan O'Reilly can focus on plans for graduation and beyond when the ancient monsters called the Fomoire are about to break out of their frozen lake.
