The Gearbreakers struck a devastating blow against Godolia on Heavensday, but the cost of victory has been steep. The few rebels who've managed to escape the empire's retribution have fled, hunted by Godolia's only surviving Zenith. Eris has been held prisoner since the attack on the capital city that almost killed her. And she begins to wish it had when she discovers Sona—the girl she would tear down cities for—also survived, only to be corrupted by the Zenith. The cybernetic brainwashing that Sona has undergone now has her believing herself a loyal soldier for Godolia, and Eris' mortal enemy. With the rebellion shattered, the Gearbreakers' last hope for victory will depend on whether Eris and Sona can find their way back to each other from opposite sides of a war . . .

In the early centuries of Islam, Muslim scholars developed countless scientific disciplines in attempting to classify, investigate, and utilise the hadiths and the sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad. As none of these sciences evolved into a fully-fledged hadith science, scholars began to implement the methodology of fiqh in examining the hadiths. After Imam al Shafii in the ninth century, hadiths were almost exclusively confined to the realm of legal studies. This new legalistic and literalist approach to the hadith created serious problems, primarily for two reasons, the Prophet did not intend that each of his words and utterances should form the basis of a legal system, and unlike the Quran, the Prophets statements were transmitted over generations and not always verbatim and therefore recorded hadiths could not be treated as immutable legal documents. The aim of this book is to demonstrate the necessity of creating a new hadith science.
