Doormaker: Torchlighters

A Short Novel

A stand-alone story in the steampunk and parallel worlds Doormaker fantasy series from New York Times and multiple USA Today best-selling author Jamie Thornton.

To keep the credit flowing, Junle must light her torches.

Indentured to the Tower of Shadows, Junle needs to earn return home credits to pay for her mother's life-saving medicine, so she signs up for the most dangerous and well paying job in the tower. Junle is a torchlighter, one of the few who are strong enough to climb the pipes outside the tower to keep them working and to keep the special licatherin drug flowing. But, when a pattern-machine foretells the death of a torchlighter boy she loves, Junle will do whatever it takes to save him. Even if that means turning the Tower of Shadows into a pile of rubble.
