"Set in a sharply imagined alternate world." -Kirkus Reviews "Delightful... Set in an Australia where it is too hot to go outside during the day, The Steam Mole is something of a love-letter to Freer's adopted country and a whacking good tale."-Otherwhere Gazette "Dave Freer always delivers compelling, fast-moving, and addictive fantasy adventures. Write more, Dave." -Garth Nix, New York Times-bestselling author of the Abhorsen trilogy and the Keys to the Kingdom series "David Freer is an imaginative author who tells great stories." -Rebecca Moesta, New York Times-bestselling coauthor of Star Wars: Young Jedi Knights"
