Hey guys,
I just finished reading my first 'steampunk' novel, Boneshaker (The Clockwork Century, #1) by Cherie Priest.
While it wasn't brilliant, I would probably give it 3.5 stars.
The world created is fantastic and original. The story didn't pay off as much as I'd hoped and the scope wasn't as big as expected, but still a great read and I think the sequels will expand the world much more so.
The setting is an alternative 1880s (?) in Seattle and the civil war is still going and there are zeppelin pirates and zombies and various other things...it's better than what is sounds.
If you've ever been interested in this genre, definitely check it out.
