Description:

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 €œClockwork 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.
