Title: Okay, I'm a fan...
Post by: WiccanEagle on March 21, 2015, 04:44:04 PM
I just never realized it... I didn't understand the term "steampunk", so I checked out a book full of short stories in various steampunk styles. I loved them all. I realized that I had been reading the genre off and on for years! Now I can't wait for Cinder Spires to come out! Of course, I was pretty positive I was going to love anything Jim produced, anway...

I'm glad he's working on Harry again, though. I miss him, and Mouse, and Murphy, and Michael, and Molly, and Thomas, and MISTER!!!!!!!!

(Talking cats! Woo-hoo!)

Oh, BTW, I decided that The Artful Detective from Canada (on Ovation) is very steampunky. The detective, William Murdoch, is always inventing stuff that shouldn't exist in 1899. Check it out!

Thanks for the suggestion I'll give them a try.

Also, last month I found a series called Crown and Key.
Book one is The Shadow Revolution: Crown and Key and book two is The Undying Legion: Crown and Key, Book three is supposed to come out later this month. They are pretty good in my opinion, they have magic and some steam punk touches but not a lot. I thought it was a nice balance.

Murdoch Mysteries, the original title of the series, is AWESOME!
