This dieselpunk alternate history WW1 story plunges deep into the trenches of France, where the rules of war have changed—and lightning obeys no master. April 1917, Chemin des Dames: a ridge soaked in blood and ambition. Amid the mud and ruin, a French artillery unit is handed a weapon that should not exist, one born from Nikola Tesla’s most dangerous ideas.

The Foudre Rapide hums with restrained fury, its copper fins pulsing with charge. But power this raw comes with a price. Captain Émile Fournier, a man of calculations and guilt, must walk the line between science and madness, strategy and sacrifice. As orders grow colder and losses mount, the weapon doesn’t just threaten the enemy—it threatens everything.
Loyalty fractures. Morality blurs. And in the silence between thunderclaps, men begin to fear their own shadows more than the Bosch.

For fans of weird war fiction, morally complex war dramas, and speculative historical warfare, this story offers a grounded but haunting glimpse of what happens when the future bleeds into the past.
