Praise for The Society of Steam: "Written with the sort of
breathless, excited narration you'd expect from a Victorian
adventure novel. . . . A damn fun read."
- io9 "The Falling Machine is quite simply the coolest steampunk
superhero book I've ever read. . . . Imagine if Gangs of New York
had been directed by Jules Verne, instead of Martin Scorsese, [and]
you're probably not too far off."
- Portland Book Review "If Stan Lee had lived in the 1880s, this is
the book he would have written-steampunk superheroes."
- Clay and Susan Griffith, authors of the Vampire Empire trilogy
"After the breathless beginning, the book keeps moving fast and
furious, and it delivers. . . . Highly recommended for any
steampunk lover."
- Fantasy Book Critic
