In this fifth installment in the Clockwork Century steampunk adventure series, Rector "Wreck 'em" Sherman, a drug dealer haunted by the ghost of a kid he used to know, sneaks over the wall into the wasteland of Seattle where he makes a shocking discovery that changes everything. Original.

Set almost entirely inside the Blight-ruined city of Seattle, the latest Clockwork Century story from Cherie Priest is mesmerizing. I was choking on fumes and gasping for air along with the main characters. A chilling preview of things that might be coming, topped off a terrific tale.
Sonuvagun, Priest did it again. That's not a surprise at this point, the surprise comes from the number of ways she can explore this world and tell its tales–and how well each works.
Was great to be back in Seattle, surrounded by familiar faces (seen from a different perspective) rather than the typical deluge of new faces. The addition of the Inexplicable creatures to this world was just icing on the cake.
Very good book, Better than Ganymede, but nowhere near as adventure packed as Boneshaker or Dreadnaught. This one was more about the characters than the adventure, which is okay. It was still an exciting read and I look forward to starting the next one!
