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 ReviewFour Stars: "An action packed, thrilling read; Very much a must for sci-fi and steampunk fans!"-Goodreads ReviewFive Stars: "Can't get enough of the stories by Jamie Sedgwick. This has been the best yet."-Amazon ReviewDescription:River's mother vanished when she was an infant, leaving her child at the mercy of the Vangar invaders and their terrifying dragon ships. Eventually, River escaped her slavery and led a revolution against these cruel overlords. Now, she's on a mission to find and recover the continent's hidden reserves of the precious element known as starfall.Barreling through their post-apocalyptic world in a massive steam locomotive, River and her companions -the steam-powered ape named Socrates and his crew of warriors, miscreants, and genetic anomalies- travel from one unpredictable adventure to another. On their first outing, the crew encounters a bizarre cult of isolationists and their strange "Clockwork God." Meanwhile, several crewmembers 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. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

The crew members all vary in personality but they make it work by being a functioning team. At times I would say the sometime interact as family members, getting along great, while bickering and arguing on a loving and caring manner.
If you haven't read the first book in the series, you'll find yourself thrown into the plot of the story, and you'll end up a bit lost. I highly recommend reading this book series in order. This is not a good stand alone book to be read prior to the first book.
The book invokes a lot of questions about the plot, and it seems to lead up to an ending with the answers to all the hints thrown at you along the way, but I found that I ended up finishing this book with many unanswered questions. Maybe this is a clue that their will be more books to the series to come.
The editing was properly done, as I didn't find any errors in spelling or grammar. I would categorize this book as a steampunk novel that was fast paced with much excitement. I found it to be very unique and unlike any other book I've read which made it all that more entertaining. The cover immediately grabbed my attention and made me anxious to start reading this book. I give this book 5/5. ( )
