SYNOPSIS: So Catherine becomes Cat, pretends to be a kid escaping the Collections, and stows away on the skyship Stormdancer. As they leave Anglya behind and brave the storms that fill the skies around the islands of Tellus, Cat’s world becomes more turbulent than she could ever have imagined, and dangerous secrets unravel her old life once and for all. WHY SHOULD YOU CHECK IT OUT? It’s also refreshing to see a steampunk novel that doesn’t need gears and machinery to announce its presence. Look at all the colors! So much more striking than golds and browns, really drawing the eye. This one will look great on any reader’s shelf. We’re more than a little in love with the author—strictly platonic—who is all kinds of awesome. Lucy Saxon was sixteen when she wrote the novel for NaNoWriMo. Now nineteen, Lucy also an avid youtuber, cosplayer, con-goer, booklover, and a self-described “all-around nerdgirl”. She has amazing cosplays, especially her Rule 34 Captain America, and makes all her own costumes. That’s right, when she’s not writing or vlogging or going to fandom events, she’s sewing her fingers off! We want to hang out with her so badly, and we know you will, too! EARLY REVIEWS SAY…
