Publisher's Synopsis
Five Stars: "I read this book in one sitting, as I was physically unable to put it down... I highly recommend The Clockwork God, and cannot wait to see what else Jamie Sedgewick has in store for us."-Goodreads Review Four Stars: "An action packed, thrilling read; Very much a must for sci-fi and steampunk fans!"-Goodreads Review Five Stars: "Can't get enough of the stories by Jamie Sedgwick. This has been the best yet."-Amazon Review DESCRIPTION: Mr. Sedgwick's new steampunk series picks up where the Tinkerer's Daughter Trilogy left off: Barreling through their post-apocalyptic world in a massive steam locomotive called the Great Iron horse, the steam-powered ape Socrates and his crew of warriors, miscreants, and genetic anomalies are in search of a rare and precious element known as starfall. Starfall is the fuel that powers the Iron Horse, as well as the great city of Sanctuary. Supplies are running low and unless they can locate another source, all civilization may soon collapse. Starfall also happens to be the ape's power source and without it, Socrates will die. On their first adventure, Socrates, River, and the rest of the crew encounter a bizarre cult of isolationists and their strange "Clockwork God." Meanwhile, several crew members have gone missing, and tensions are rising as mutineers conspire to overthrow Socrates and destroy the train. As the conflict comes to a boil, a power more ancient and sinister than anything they ever imagined threatens to destroy them all. The "Iron Horse" series is a follow up to Sedgwick's best-selling steampunk series "The Tinkerer's Daughter." A reading of the earlier books is not necessary to enjoy this new series, but may provide added insight to certain characters and history.
