The Machine by E.C. Jarvis
My rating: 4 of 5 stars I am really picky about steampunk stories, and I was cautious going in with this one. Of course, one the best things about not expecting much is that I get to be happily surprised when the book turns out to be well-written, well-plotted, with engaging characters. The m/c goes on a believable journey from retail clerk to airship pirate captain. If you enjoy the webcomic Girl Genius, you'll enjoy this book. Also, author understands the difference between series and serial. This is the first book in a series and has a satisfactory conclusion while leaving enough loose ends that I'm looking forward to reading the next book. View all my reviews That came out sounding dry, but I'm so not used to writing positive reviews, haha! Enjoyed this book very much! Buy it! Read it! Review it!

This sounds quite entertaining and intriguing! I just looked online: universally positive reviews! I may have to give this a try! And maybe even actually read it, as opposed to, y'know, buying something that sounds interesting for the Kindle and never getting around to actually reading it. The cover art for this series is certainly eye-catching.
