It is called the Axiom Diamond: a mythical relic with the power to show its bearer any truth they desire. Men have sought for it across many planets for centuries, but in vain. Aimee de Laurent, apprentice portalmage, is thrown into the race to find the gem when her first portal-casting goes awry, sending Aimee, her mentor, and the skyship Elysium into the war-torn midst of the invaded kingdom of Port Providence. Against them is pitted the might of the infamous magic-wielding knights of the Eternal Order, and their enigmatic commander, Lord Azrael, seeking the diamond, and destroying all in their path.

New graduate Aimee takes to the skies as the newest portal mage on her teacher‘s skyship, Elysium. When her first portal goes wonky and they end up in the middle of battle for a powerful relic, the Axiom Diamond, their small crew takes on the might of the Eternal Order.
Sci-fi and fantasy, this story of a found family has amazing characters, fantastic world building, and impeccable fight scenes.

If you want to read a book about the real world, then do not read this book. If you want to read a fun book written by a sword/historical European fighting enthusiast that is a fantasy/scifi mash up of a classic type of adventure novel, then you should read this book. Great summer read!

This isn't exactly a revolutionary idea for a story--but man, it doesn't matter. There's a reason everyone and their brother has tried this--it's a good story. Especially when it's told well. And Brassey tells it really well. Not just because of his hybridization of SF & Fantasy, but because he can take a story that everyone's taken a shot at and make it seem fresh.

I don't know what 'it' is, but this book's got it.
