Welcome aboard the Brass Anchor!High above the mountains of Asura, the steamship Brass Anchor hunts pirates, escorts priceless cargo, and survives on the thin edge between glory and disaster. For Sorceress First-Class Hatsuki Miko and her crew, that life is freedom.
A frost sorceress in a world that still fears magic, Miko has found her place among the rough-and-ready crews of the Free Navy—far from the laws that forbid people like her from power, rank, or love.
When the ship returns to the glittering skyports of Asura, danger waits far beyond pirate ambushes. Powerful trade guilds manipulate the skies from the shadows, rival crews pursue their own deadly ambitions, and a chance encounter with a mysterious courtesan threatens to pull Miko into a web of intrigue she doesn’t yet understand.
As contracts grow deadlier and conspiracies reach deeper into the Free Navy itself, Miko will have to master her magic, navigate tangled loyalties, and decide what she is willing to risk—for her ship, for her captain, and for the fragile freedom she’s finally found among the clouds.
Adventure, romance, and danger collide in this steampunk LitRPG tale of airships, magic, and the price of loyalty in the skies above Asura.

Early ARC Review 🏴☠️ Spoiler Free I am halfway through and already messaging one of the authors asking if there is a sequel! My first LitRPG Sapphic Smut and I went in blind so I had no expectations BUT it is exceeding them somehow anyway! The smut….clearly written by a woman (Thanks Sena 😩) and the action keeps me on edge ignoring all responsibilities while I read. On a hammock? I am still pondering on that one. The steamship aerial battles! The authors have done a great job with being descriptive without making it overly complicated so you really can paint that picture in your head. Out now so make sure to get yourself a copy!!
