This six-book set brings together two story arcs from The Edge Chronicles: three books from the Quint saga and three from the Twig saga. The collection introduces the floating city of Sanctaphrax, described as a great rock suspended above the ground and held fast by a chain, with inhabitants living “with their heads literally in the clouds”.
Across the set, Quint Verginix and Twig Verginix each face their own challenges, from training at the Knight’s Academy to journeys through the Deepwoods and voyages into open sky. The synopses also reference sky-pirates, stormchaser sky-ships and stormphrax, a substance retrieved from the heart of Great Storms to help weigh down Sanctaphrax.
Fourteen-year-old Quint Verginix, the only remaining son of the sky-pirate Wind Jackal, travels with his father to Sanctaphrax. The city is a floating rock, tethered to the ground below by a chain, where the inhabitants live with their heads literally in the clouds.
Quint Verginix enrols as a squire at the Knight’s Academy, training to pilot stormchaser sky-ships into Great Storms. The aim is to retrieve stormphrax, solidified lightning used to weigh down the floating rock of Sanctaphrax.
As winter tightens its grip and the city strains against its tether, long-standing feuds threaten to divide its people.
Quint Verginix’s family is shattered after his mother and brothers are killed in an arson attack. When Turbot Smeal, the quartermaster held responsible, returns, Quint and his father set out to take revenge.
Abandoned at birth in the Deepwoods, Twig Verginix is raised by woodtrolls. One cold night he leaves the path, beginning a journey through a world of goblins, dangerous beasts and flesh-eating trees, while searching for the truth about his past.
Twig Verginix becomes a crew-member of The Stormchaser, exploring the skies of the Edge as a sky pirate. His plans change when Cloud Wolf forbids him from joining a dangerous quest to collect stormphrax, a substance created inside the heart of a Great Storm.
Twig Verginix has earned a reputation as a young sky pirate captain who dared to sail over the Edge. As a storm gathers in open sky, Sanctaphrax, the floating city tethered to the land by a massive chain, lies directly in its path.
