Description
Babylon Steel, ex-sword-for-hire, ex... other things, runs The Red Lantern, the best brothel in the city. She's got elves using sex magic upstairs, S&M in the basement and a large green troll cooking breakfast in the kitchen, and she'd love you to visit, except...
She's not having a good week. The Vessels of Purity are protesting against brothels, girls are disappearing, and if she can't pay her taxes Babylon's going to lose the Lantern. She'd given up the mercenary life, but when the mysterious Darask Fain pays her to find a messing heiress, she has to take the job. And then her past starts to catch up with her in other, more dangerous ways.

Schweitzer Classification
Person
Gaie Sebold's first published novel, Babylon Steel, came out from Solaris in 2012. The second in the Babylon Steel series, Dangerous Gifts, came out in 2013. A steampunk novel, Shanghai Sparrow, came out in 2014 and the sequel, Sparrow Falling, came out in 2016.
Gaie occasionally hits people with latex swords and has been known to read poetry, in public, for money. She has had a number of jobs, none of them as much fun as writing or running writing workshops. The most interesting thing she ever had to do for a day job was travel on the Underground while carrying a 6 foot carriage whip and an artificial severed finger.
She lives with writer David Gullen and has a paranoid cat, a shaggy garden, and rather a lot of hats.
