I posted this in the Writers' Corner, but since this is SHAMELESS.
In an age of steam power and rifles, where magic has not yet been forgotten, a nine year old orphan girl named Senta is adopted by Zurfina, a mysterious and powerful sorceress who joins an expedition to found a colony in a lost world. The Voyage of the Minotaur is a story of adventure and magic, religion and discrimination, steam engines and dinosaurs, angels and lizardmen, machine guns and wizards, bustles and corsets, steam-powered computers, hot air balloons, and dragons.
Join the expedition to colonized distant, exotic Birmisia and meet its leaders: Iolanthe Dechantagne, who cares for nothing but restoring the once great prestige of her family name; her brother Terrence, a hero with a dark secret, haunted by an beautiful angel; Zeah Korlann, the butler and member of the minority Zaeri religion who face discrimination at home and abroad; Professor Merced Calliere, creator of the Result Mechanism, a steam-powered computer; Radley Staff, a navel officer with a love for women and one woman in particular; Saba Colbshallow, a boy who rises from a lowly household servant to become a community leader; and of course the Steel Dragon. Hatched from an egg by Zurfina, what is the destiny of this strange mythical creature on a continent where dragons are worshipped as gods?
