For Steam And Country (The Adventures Of Baron Von Monocle Book 1)

Description

Her father’s been pronounced dead. Destructive earthquakes ravage the countryside. An invading army looms over the horizon. And Zaira’s day is just getting started . . .

Abandoned at an early age, Zaira von Monocle found life as the daughter of a great adventurer to be filled with hard work and difficulty. She quickly learned to rely on only herself. But when a messenger brought news that her father was dead and that she was the heir to his airship, her world turned upside down.

Zaira soon finds herself trapped in the midst of a war between her home country of Rislandia and the cruel Wyranth Empire, whose soldiers are acting peculiarly—almost inhuman. With the enemy army advancing, her newfound ship’s crew may be the only ones who can save the kingdom.

“Witty, charming and downright thrilling! Del Arroz nails the feel of good old fashioned Steampunkery with wit, aplomb and of course . . . panache.” —Nick Cole, author of the Dragon Award winner, CTRL ALT Revolt

“For Steam and Country is a rousing girl-powered fantasy tale. I thoroughly enjoyed this action-packed airship adventure!” —Laurie Forest, author of The Black Witch
