Review by: Jeff Oaster on May 25, 2012 :
I came into this book with pretty high hopes, and was a bit disappointed. Don't get me wrong - it's a good book, with an entertaining story and lots of action, but the storytelling was a bit off - it might have worked better as a series of short stories and novellas. Maybe Paul Kater was attempting to write in the style of some of Clarke's books (2001 or Childhood's End) where everything followed the same storyline, but it wasn't one continuous story. Whatever his intent, the story feels a bit choppy. Still, I read through the book quickly, and it has a lot of the qualities that make for enjoyable steampunk (although there could have been more dirigibles 8^)

Very good steampunk story. Well-written. Can't wait for the sequel.
