The Machine gives.The Machine protects.The Machine lies.A hundred years ago, the Great Machine rose from the sea and lumbered onto the English coastline. Now it's a part of daily life for the people of Wrotdam as they use the Ink dripping from its chassis to power their city, develop wondrous inventions, and protect themselves from the sludge-like Mire that mindlessly seeks to infect them.On the eve of the Machine's centennial, a young woman comes to Wrotdam claiming the Mire is becoming intelligent and seeks to feed her village of Dawnhallow to an apparatus of grinding teeth and black smoke. Shunned and belittled, she finds help with the most unlikely sorts. A cleric, a sawbones, a thief, a magician, a leech, a cursed, and a fallen. These seven outcasts have their own reasons for trying to save Dawnhallow, whether that be a search for answers, salvation, or power. The Church refuses them, the village doubts them, and through bickering, battling, and falling in love, they discover the Mire isn't their only threat.Armed with fantastic weaponry and abilities, they just might survive the fight - if they don't kill each other first.

Corporate espionage, cults, faeries.It's 2133, and Earth has rebuilt after a global catastrophe.Megacities, wireless tech, and augmented humans are all commonplace. What isn't common, is Kraft. Kraft sees monsters. This tends to get him in trouble, especially when the rest of the world doesn't believe they exist. For Kraft, even an easy job like cleaning a corporation's computer system involves a dark cult, a battle with faeries, and a computer virus that reaches into the real world. --- "A lot of what I believe makes Endless Hunger stand out is how it deals with the multiple genres it spans. The world that New Montreal exists in is built upon sci-fi technologies (Wireless communication, smart clothing, advanced security), but Kraft is dealing with fantasy problems (Faeries, vampires, wizards). Rather than juxtaposing the elements of science and magic, my work looks at the parallels. It sees how those parts of each genre can mix to create something new." - Kevin Weir, author --- "Weir's debut is a riveting, genre-blending adventure that will keep you guessing on every page." -- Jodi McIsaac, author
